 Hang-ah Kim

8/4/21

1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

For this session, Hang-ah and I returned to an activity that we did early on in our sessions where I put together a roleplay. In this roleplay I give her a situation where I play a role, and she has to respond while in character using vocabulary words that I provide her with. I then write down her answers on the shared doc where we can go back after the roleplay to correct her answers. I like this activity because it promotes speaking, while also having something to go back on and correct. Today's roleplay was centered around a shopping experience at Macy's, and the interactions that Hang-ah might have had with the employees there.

Here the words in parenthesis are the words that Hang-ah had to use and the highlighted words are Hang-ah's corrected responses.

Shopping at Macy’s

-Hello and welcome to Macy’s, what can I help you with today? (Overalls, aisle, corduroy)

- Hello I’m looking for corduroy overalls, which aisle would that be in?

-Are you interested in a sample makeover? (Concealer, time)

- Sure! I’m looking for a concealer for my acne. How much time would that take?

- Can I help you find something ma’am? (stilettos, size)

- I’m looking for stilettos. May I try this pair in a size 8?

- Will you be paying with cash or credit? (gift certificate, surcharge) 

- I actually have a gift certificate. I’ll pay with cash for the surcharge.

- For what occasion would you like these wrapped? (baby shower, ribbon)

- This is for my friend’s baby shower. Could you use a pink pom pom ribbon?

To end the session we had a shadow box that asked, "where does today come before yesterday?", answered with, "the dictionary". I feel as though the shadow boxes are a great way to encourage Hang-ah to speak, as well as provides a fun activity to wind down the lesson.
