A Healthy Diet

Monday 1st August 2016           

Today is a first day of my second year student life. Today I have only one class in the morning is “ English Reading Strategies 15511008 ”.

                               

First of all , my teacher Dr.Usa Noytim show us about “ Classroom Rules ” There are 6 rules that we have to agree when we are in the classroom.

1. Be punctual : You have to be on time and if you are late it’s mean you absent.
2. Pay attention to the lesson
3. o not use cell phone in the classroom. ( Except for study purpose )
4. Do not cheat. : Especially, when you do the test.
5. Follow dress code policy.
6. Listen while others are speaking or sharing.
          In my opinion it’s the basic rules when I’m in the classroom. For me I thought it’s very easy to follow.
                                                                 

After that teacher gave us a chance to shared our opinion “ What do you expect about this subject ? ”. I was the one of volunteer who sheared about expectation about this subject. For me after I have studied this subject already. I will develop 4 English skills Speaking, Reading, listening especially, writing skill. And I thought I can read English better than now and I hope that I will get a lot of strategies that can make me read English like a professional.
                                                             

I know that there are a lot of strategies can use when we read English but strategies that I used to use when I read in English is skimming and scanning. I think it’s basic strategies for reading. It’s make me can read English in a short time and I can got it. And one more strategies is guessing words meaning from context because I did not want to stop reading and open the dictionary it’s waste my time. I thought guessing words meaning from context it can save my time when I read.
                                                                

 After finished, teacher gave me an activity to ask and answer with partner.
1. What do you read in your daily life ?
2. Do you read in English ?
If your partner say yes : What do you read ?
If your partner say no : why not ?
   
 Today my partner is Kittikarn she said that in her daily life she read cartoon in English because cartoon that she like it translate in English version before Thai version. If she can not stand for it she have to read in English.
                                                      
         After finished, Teacher let’s us to did mind mapping on the board about strategies for reading.
1. Skimming              2. Scanning 3. Restatement
4. Previewing            5. Guessing words meaning from the context
6. Finding references7. Making inferences
And then teacher gave us a course syllabus and explain it for us how to get the point, what will we learn etc.
                                      

                                      Today’s lesson is “ A healthy diet ”

I learned about food and analyses food that healthy or unhealthy. I learned about vocabulary, did exercise “ filled the blank ”. Grammar for today is present continuous and then did exercise.           

Today teacher assigned homework for us to take 10 food photos and also describe each food, print out and bring it on next week. But the biggest homework is “ Blogger ” I have to write blog in English every week all this semester there are 16 weeks . I thought it difficult but it is not too difficult for me. I will do it my best. I know that I am not good in English but I will try hard to do that. I will improve my writing skill and I will do homework by myself. Today’s lesson make me happy when I learned because it not difficult and it about food in daily life. It made me hungry when I saw a lot of food photos. That’s all for today. See you next week. Good bye.
