ABOUT
GEORGIA
5
Her Glorious Past and Hopeful
Future
Georgia, an exquisitely beautiful country of
5.5 million people, is ringed by the Caucasus
Mountains and set at the crossroads of Europe
and Asia. It lies between the Black and
Caspian Seas and borders on Turkey, Russia
and Armenia. Since recorded time, Georgians
have been famous for their hospitality to
strangers. The visiting ancient Greeks knew
Georgia as the land of the Golden Fleece. It
was a woman, St. Nino, who brought
Christianity to Georgia in 330 A.D. Georgian
wine has been produced for over 3,000 years
and Georgian literature dates back to the fifth
century A.D. Scholars have compared the 12th
century Georgian poet Shota Rustaveli to
Dante and Shakespeare
6
In May 1991, Georgia declared independence
from the Soviet Union. In spite of major
efforts towards stabilizing the economy and
instituting democratic practices, Georgia is
still struggling economically. The new
Georgian Government under President
Mikheil Saakashvili, who was elected in
January 2004, is endeavoring to restore the
Georgian economy and renew the hopes of
the Georgian people.
Currently, the Georgian Government is
unable to provide most of her people with
gas, electricity or social services. Georgian
industry, still suffering from the Soviet
legacy, has collapsed leaving many workers
without pay or without jobs at all.
Georgians who once enjoyed one of the
highest literacy rates in the world now have
schools struggling from a lack of heat and
unpaid teacher salaries

My Reflection About J.E.B
Stuart High School
ESOL Department
15
My Reflection About J.E.B Stuart High School
First of all I feel very fortunate to be sent to JEB Stuart high
school as a teacher, and met excellent stuff
of that school,
My mentor, Mrs DAVIS ESOL teacher, who gives me constant
support and exquisite educational guidance, and Mrs. Ruth
the head of ESOL department, whose enthusiasm helped fuel
our lessons and working.
We went to school on Wednesday 29 of September. The day
began with the tour of school and meeting in workroom. I was
admired by the teachers attitude and devotion toward their
students. As I noticed there is a big diversity in a school, there
are a lot of students from central America, Guatemala,
Honduras, etc. which makes a deep cultural difference, all of
them have their traditions, and the way of living, but they, as
well as the stuff of the school constantly try to get on well to
each other.
The schooldays are divided into different parts Red Days and
Blue Days ,according to the traditional colors of the school,
and the students have different lessons and different
assignments for these days.
I learned many new teaching methods, Mrs Davis had very
interesting agenda, warm up games, grammar references,
and etc. the lesson was quite interesting. After lessons we
went to the Guidance and Career Centre, where we had very
interesting session about the school policy, dress code,
student assistance program, how do the parents apply for the
school, Mrs Ruth gave us very interesting books about
teaching methods and lesson plans.
16
Now I want to let you know about our second visit at JEB Stuart
high school. We began our working in PLATO, this is the name of
the computer lab. Where we were given our passwords and
contracts for using computers. We worked there a lot till 12
o`clock and we were able to write the tests of Master`s level,
That tests gave us a lot of practice, experience, and selfconfidence, we also visited the library ,they have enormous
interesting books and looked them through.
On that day I had an opportunity to meet other teachers and
attend their classes, one of them was Mrs Capone, she teaches
Science, her lesson was so good and beautiful, I wished never
ended it, she used the smart board during the lesson, Mrs.
Capone has very interesting program which is called “Concepts
Science I ” this course is designed to help improve the student`s
English and Science knowledge and prepare them for the “core”
science classes: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Geosystem,
Quarter grades will be based on the following categories and
percentage:
Written assignments and lab reports
40%
Tests, quizzes and performance assessments 30%
Homework
30%
This school has such tradition: every year on that time they
meet Alumni, they have homecoming events, for school 50-th
Anniversary, so we were invited to the PEP RALLY and
homecoming parade, we had a wonderful time there,
17
My goal is to adjust new methods and new teaching
strategies, that will meet the needs of my kids in
Georgia, enhance my teaching skills, and increase my
knowledge about the US culture and educational
system.
18
J.E.B. Stuart High School
My observation about student assessment
system in the classroom,
I attend classes at J.E.B Stuart High School, my
mentor teacher is tviy Devis , she is real
professional, she uses many kinds of assessment
system, and here is what I have observed during
classis, though we didn`t have enough time for
this. I am going to use the following assessment
methods in my school, because it is new for my
students and I will also share them to my
colleagues.
We had very interesting discussion about topic.
As teachers, we must not just want to believe that all
students can learn, but must really want each and
every student to feel the exhilaration of success.
Student`s Assessment is based on the contention that
student achievement and academic self-concept
are determined, by and large, on the basis of
students’ perceptions of their own success in
classrooms. It presents a philosophy that places
students at the center of the classroom equation.
The single most important value any teacher must
bring to the classroom assessment process is a
strong sense of caring about student wellbeing in
school
19
I found out that complex outcomes to assess, including:
• Knowledge outcomes: material to be mastered either
through memorization or via using references;
• Reasoning Outcomes: ways to use knowledge to meet
specific problem-solving challenges;
• Skill outcomes: things that students should be able to
do as a result of mastering the material presented;
• Affective outcomes: feelings students might
experience
as a result of study.
“Assessment is not a mathematical challenge.
Assessment is a
challenge in clear thinking and effective
communication”- she says,
20
1. Classroom assessments provide the basis of
information
for student, parent, teacher, principal, and community
decision-making.
2. They motivate students to try-or not to!
3. They screen students in and out of programs, giving
them access to the special services they may need.
4. They provide at least part of the basis for teacher
and
principal evaluation.
Classroom Assessment unfolds in four parts:
Understanding Classroom Assessment Context,
Understanding Assessment Methods,
Classroom Applications of Assessment,
Communicating About Student Achievement.
Each part offers unique perspectives on the classroom
assessment process, yet the
four parts present a unified overall picture of the
assessment process and its place in day-to-day
instruction.
21
Involving Students in Assessing Reasoning
1. Have students think aloud when problem-solving.
2. Have students learn to label an understand the
kinds of thinking they
are using.
3. Ask students to probe each other's reasoning.
4. Offer students repeated opportunities to participate
in developing sample
tests items that tap reasoning.
5. When asking questions that require reflection and
thought, wait for a
response.
6. Avoid questions that call for a yes or no answer.
7. Use concept mapping.
8. Have students design essay and performance
assessments that measure
reasoning.
9. Set up a classroom display on the kinds of reasoning
valued
22
Designing Portfolio Systems
1. Who will be involved in the portfolio design?
2. What will be the purpose of the portfolio?
3. What specific outcomes will be reflected in portfolio
material?
4. What kinds of assessment information will be
considered
appropriate to meet the portfolio's purpose?
5. What guidelines will govern the selection of
material for the
portfolio?
6. Who shall make the selections?
7. What criteria will be used to evaluate entries in the
portfolios?
8. How will student self-reflection be worked into the
system?
9. What criteria will be used to evaluate the quality of
the self reflection?
10. What criteria will be used and who will evaluate the
portfolio
as a whole?
11. Who owns the portfolio and who has access to the
portfolio?
12. How will it be stored and transmitted to users?

Intelligences
Self Assessment

25
Step 1
Primary : Avoidance (6 o`clock)
Backup: Affiliative (2 o`clock)
Step 2
My Avoidance Score is in Low Range, so this means to me that I
probably prefer to confront things rather than avoid them. I
seldom experience significant doubt over my ability to deal
with problems, and are usually not afraid to take occasional
risks. Rather than always choosing the safest route, I am likely
to explore different alternatives for accomplishing something.
Confidence in myself contributes to my belief that I can
change things for the better. When I do mistakes, I probably
see them as opportunities to learn and grow.

Step 5
Some positive differences:
If I changed my behavior in this area, my life will really change,
because I will know how to ignore my problems, I will not take
occasional risks, explore different alternatives for accomplishing
something.
Some negative differences:
In my opinion When I make the mistake, it will be especially difficult
for me to forgive myself and move on. I will typically refrain from
examining and expressing my feelings. My tendency to focus on
my own concerns can cause me to ignore what is happening
around me.

PROCEDURES FOR LEARNING ACTIVITIES
Activity#1
name of the activity:
aim: connect the words logically.
time: 15 min.
work Individually
Step I
I give the instructions to the Sts, to read the text silently, they will
have the time. 10 min. and write all the new words in their
notebooks.
Step II
I ask the students to dictate the words. I write them on the
blackboard in random.
pick up, suffer, justice
from, quiet, empty,
expensive, discover, sailors.
rich, government,
disease,
31
Step III
The students are given the task
(they work individually)
guess the meaning of the words by the
context
Step IV
connect the words logically with each
other
e.g
pick up
rich
government
sailors
32
Step V
(work in pairs)
I give instructions: find the sentences using these words
and read loudly and the second partner should translate
into Georgian.
This activity develops: Linguistic Intelligence, Logical
Mathematical intelligence, Intrapersonal( individualized
instructions) Intelligences
Activity #2
(work in groups)
aim: Using the new words restore the text.
i explain the aim of the activity, what the sts. will have
to do. There is the extract form the text form which the
words are missed, the sts will fill the empty gaps, and
the first letter of the word there is also given. they must
close the books and do the work.
the extract is written on the Monitors:
33
there were three w _(I)_ to get California from
the eastern United S_(II)__. The most comfortable
way was to go by S ___(III)___ around the tip of
South A___(IV)___. and then north to San
F___(V)___. by the time P___(VI)___arrived, there
was not going to be much G___(VII)___ for them to
find. A faster way to get to California was to
C___VIII)___ Central America.
After the activity the sts. exchange, the places
in front of the computers and correct each
other`s works, and two leaders make the
presentation .
This activity develops special intelligence
34
Activity #3
time-15min.
For this activity we ask the Geography teacher for help. We
together divide the class into three groups of travelers.
They are given such task. ”Imagine that you` re the 49-ers, and
you are desperately going to look for gold in California.
From the text we know that
there are three ways from Eastern States to get to California:
1.The most comfortable way was to go by ship around the tip
of South America ,and then North to San Francisco, but
there was the problem –it took between four and eight
months to complete the journey.
2.A faster way to get to California was to cross the Central
America, where the distance between the Atlantic and the
Pacific Oceans was the shortest, and then continue North
by boat.
But there was the problem: The 49-ers who came that way
could expect bad food, bad water, disease, and the
possibility that the boat might never come to pick them up.
35
3.A third way was to cross the country by land, in
covered wagons, but there was also the
problem: this way was slow and dangerous,
some wagon trains suffered terribly, by both
from freezing winter weather and from Indian
attacks.
Each group takes the route get by voting. They
should research the way 49-ers traveled and
transfer the route on the map. They have the
political maps on the screen,
The group which guess the right route will be the
winner.
This activity develops Special intelligence, Bodilykinesthetic intelligence (competitive and
cooperative games),Interpersonal Intelligence,
36
Activity # 5 /listening/
Time 10 min
For this activity our music teacher helps us .we give the
task to the students.
Listen to the music, insert the missing words in the song
and pay much attention to what period of American
History is expressed in the song, what genre does the
song belong to,
what is the feeling of singer? etc.
This activity makes very friendly atmosphere in the
classroom, they listen, pick the main information
about the characters, the students define the situation
in which the 49-ers had been.
This activity develops Musical Intelligence Interpersonal
Intelligence, Linguistic Intelligence.
5. REFLECTION
This lesson Plan is based upon MI Theory, activities
spanning all seven Intelligences have been used to
achieve the instructional objectives.

Portfolio Strategy Sheet
1.Name of method or strategy:
Vocabulary matching with L1
2.When is this method or strategy useful?
to learn new vocabulary by classifying them into
groups
to learn a pronunciation difference between words
3. Why or how is this method or strategy useful?
1. Help students increase vocabulary using L1
2. Students figure out the differences for themselves
Students think about the words to help internalize them
Students write and then “handle” the words to help
understand and remember them.
4.What are the steps involved in using this strategy or
method?
Students read the text silently to the end and while
reading write out the unknown words and make their
own list of new words. They should write the words
exactly as they appear in the text, E.g “looked”
Check the meaning of unknown with their partner,
Make the list of unknown words as a pair,
Count the number of words on their list and tell the
number to the teacher,
73
The pair who`s got the most number of words
comes to the board and writes their list in
the left column.
One person from other pairs come to the
board and add the words from their list that
are not on the board.
The students match the words on the left with
the words on the right individually,
5. When would this method or strategy be
useful in your setting?
In learning new vocabulary
In a formal vocabulary program throughout
the year
6.What would you like other teachers in your
school to know about this method or
strategy?
It is extremely easy and requires no special
materials. The words or lists must be neat
and large enough to read from a distance. It
helps the teacher to remember to use the
words as often as possible and keeps them in
front of the students so they can really
become part of their vocabulary. If they are
in groups it helps students associate the
words with topics.

My Reflective Statement on Learning
We, teachers of TEA program, were lucky
to have a chance to have sessions in
ESL Research, Methods& Assessment;
We met very interesting and well
educated people Nora Elbilawi`s classes
were very helpful during the whole
course ,which were supported with
academic books, articles, reliable
websites on the question, She was
always ready to share her knowledge
and experience with us. Her
encouragement and dedication was
impressive. It helped us much to explore
and try new things, we had not done
before
77
SIGNIFICANT LEARNING FROM These SESSIONS:
 LEARN INSTRUCTION MODEL, to design lesson plan
 Backward design to develop unit plan and lesson
plans
 Use of different types of assessment strategies i.e.
Formative assessment, Summative assessment,
designing Rubric for performance assessment.
 Design lesson plan based upon MI theory.
 Use Brain Compatible Instruction in choosing the
activities for the classes.
 The most interesting topic for me was Integrated
Thematic Instruction (ITI), a
 comprehensive school improvement model designed
by Susan Kovalik in 1982
 to increase student performance and teacher
satisfaction.
 And generally Integrated Curriculum to foster
students making connections among their learning
I would like to thank her for the support and
dedication. I feel how I grew as a specialist after her
sessions. As soon as I get home I will share this
knowledge and experience with teachers of my
region. I will never forget your wonderful classes
THANK YOU!!!
