Medias for Teaching English

This semester, in Instructional Media class, we should create the media that used in teaching students in the classroom for every meeting. We should present it in front of the class. This is some of media that I have craeted.
1.      Printed Media (Newspaper)
v  Description
I got this news from http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2017/03/11/king-salman-set-to-leave-bali-on-sunday.html.
This is a printed media and used to teach about News Item for the fisrt grade students of Senior High School.
Firts, I teach the students about News Item topic. Then, when they can get the information, I give them this newspaper as an exercise. I will divide them into several group. Each group consist of three or four students. I give each group one paper. Next, they should find W-H questions from the newspaper and also give the edivences. They should finish it about 10 minutes. If they have finished it, I will ask the answers from each group and discuss it together.

2.      Realia Media
v  Description
I used the picture of animals to teach about the name of animal. This is a realia media. I used this media for the first grade students of Junior High  School. I used those pictures because those picture are the contextual pictures (realia). They can find those real animals in their environment. Therefore, for the realia media, I teach about animals.
I show them one by one of the animal pictures and I write down the name of its animal on the white board. After I write all of their name, I teach them how to pronounce it. Then, I will randomize the pictures and ask them one by one to mention its name and make one sentence using its animal, so that they can automatically memorize it.

3.      Miniature Media
v  Description
I made house’s miniature. This miniature is made by myself using sticks. I will teach about description text for the first grade students of Senior High School. I ask the students to make a description text using this miniature. Before I ask them to make it in one paragraph, I provide some vocabularies that they do not know and write it on the white board. After that, I ask them to read in front of the class one by one voluntarily so that all of his/her classmate can listen to his/her description.  Also, I made it colorful so that can attract their interest.
