Group activities
When is the proper time during the classroom to do group activities?
a)First hour of class
b)Last two hours of class
I think that it depends on the class but my vote is for the last 2 hours of class. My class starts at 2pm and ends at 6pm. I think it would be better at the end of class when they are starting to get bored or sleepy.
In like doing group activities it keeps syudent interest.Keeps them engagesd
THAT WHAT I THINK MORE WORK TO LET THE STUDENT REFOCUSING WHEN I FELL THEY LOSE ATTANTION TO THE SUBJECT.
I would say the last two hours it keeps their attention
I like doing it right at start of class it engages everyone and sets the mood
My vote is the last 2 hours, after the break.
Juan , whether at the beginning or the end depends on the group you are teaching and when they need refocusing.
