After observing some 1ESO lessons, we asked our tutor to observe other classes and other levels to get a big overview of ESO differences. So, we get observe a group from 4th ESO ans another from 2nd of Batxillerat.
These two groups were hardly different from 1st ESO groups. Their level of English understanding is higher, so that, teacher could speak the whole class in English.
However, in 4th ESO groups teacher translate some important issues on grammar and she uses Catalan to clarify some vocabulary. In constrast, Batxillerat students tried to participate in class trough English, they even speak English with the teacher before starting any specific activity!
What impressed me the most was students behaviour, there were no similiraties at all with 1st ESO students.
Older students paid attention during all the lesson, they rarely spoke, they were well involved in activities.
It was a really nice experience and it let us to discover how other teachers work.
