Time




What’s time?

     Time is one of the most important aspects all teachers must take into account. Time is one of the most challenging aspects for teacher to manage since everything must be timed. Time is the most difficult aspect for teachers to fulfill. So, time is the worst enemy teachers have.

    Have you ever heard that it’s better to have your enemies near you than far from you? Well, that’s what you have to do. All teachers have to learn how to deal with time since a good class has to be timed. In order to have a great class and good classroom management, teachers have to time all the activities they want to develop; that’s why, they have to know and learn how time works!

In order for teachers not to be running and
going crazy when time is over, teachers must
know that there’re many different types of
time, for example, allocation time, time to
learn, adequate time, beginning and ending
minutes.

  •  Allocation time means academic learningtime, time scheduled for academic work in an academic areas.
  • Time to learn is the time in which Ss will learn during a semester or during a certain time.
  •  Adequate time is the right time for tasks or analysis of new learning. This is the time is the adequate to look for activities that help teachers make sure that learning is taking place.
  •  Beginning and ending minutes. This are the first five minutes and last five minutes of the class which have to be remarkably interesting for Ss.

In conclusion, all teachers must be aware that their classes will be a complete mess without timing; they have to know how to deal with it and use it to get as many as possible benefits from it in order to make learning take place in their classrooms.
