First, when I was looking at the type of performance each group might choose to do, I said they could write a poem, a song, or perform a skit. Well, most of the students didn't know what a skit was, so I had to go over it and explain that a skit was like a play. Secondly, I would reduce the time needed to work on their performance. I gave each group ten minutes and before doing the activity I didn't think it would be enough time, but it certainly was. All but one group finished in five minutes, so the other five minutes were spent talking and practicing, which increased the volume of noise in the classroom. If I were to do this project again I would reduce the time to 5-7 minutes. Third, the difficulty I had was more of a technical nature. I decided to string the group role tag strings together so I could keep each role separate and not get distorted, but when it came time to use them I spent more time peeling the tape off the string than talking about what each does. role of the group. Later, the time I separate them before class or want to use string, I will simply tape them on the students
