Week 1 of a teaching course covered several topics: introductions on Monday, classroom commands on Tuesday, writing genres on Wednesday, and thinking/planning tools on Thursday. Students were assigned to submit a narrative on what they learned, a description of their interests, and an informative piece on what they wish to cover in the next two weeks. The document outlines discussion topics for practicing analytical thinking and public speaking. Formative assessments included arranging classroom desks and adding English words to classes. Students were also asked to submit a mind map summarizing the course so far.
