Orange You Glad We’re Learning English

On November 20, 2023, ETA Natalie Suh met with her tenth-grade hotel students and co-taught a lesson on descriptive text. The lesson introduced the five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Students also learned the names of the body parts used with each sense.

After students were done taking their notes, she instructed students to close their eyes. She explained that the teachers would place a mystery object in front of the students. They would have to use their sense of touch to try and figure out what the object was. So, Natalie and her co-teacher placed mystery objects in front of all the students with their eyes closed. Some students were nervous to feel what was before them, while others were more excited. The students guessed correctly quite quickly and concluded that it was an orange!

The lesson continued by going over each of the five senses to write sentences describing the orange. Students were very happy to be able to eat their oranges afterward for their hard work.

Natalie Suh is currently teaching at SMKN 3 Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan.
