I am going to start by describing my students briefly, this is a small group of 10 staudents 4, girls and 6 boys, the school is private so every single group is small, my students' ages are between 7 and 8, it sounds kind of easy to work with children of those ages but behind my student's faces there are many things that really make you twice before comming into the classroom ans start a class. Today was a very good day, because the class ws very interesting, all the students were very participative, they wanted to make part of the class all the time, they were in a writing in a quiet way but suddenly one of my "dearest" students started to talk out lout and stood up to bother his classmates ( this boy doesn't hear anyone, he does the same in the other classes, he doesn't follow directions) I tried to make him sit down by asking him to behave and stay quiet, after trying many times and negotiating he did it, in the end I could continue doing my job.

I also could notice that studens get bothered by his classmate's behavior, some just get really mad and and complain and the other just join him/her ( because there are some girls wh sometimes don't behave at all and act like boys, kicking back as a response of the boys attacks) to bother the rest of the class. At the end I could finish my class, I did acomplish the main goal, wich was to teach them the family members and I can say they understood big part of the topic, altough there were some students that had some doubts about the vocabulary.
