How do I know my students?
Read and Think (students’ worksheet 2)
As an educator, people often ask me how I know what is going on in the minds of my students. Many students are quite shy and don’t speak all that much.

So if a student has his head lowered to look at his watch, it

implies he is bored and just counting the minutes for the class to end. If two friends are leaning their heads together, they are probably writing notes to each other. Of course, not everyone who looks up is paying attention in class. Some students look up, but there is an absence of eye contact. Their eyes barely move, and they always have the same distant expression on their faces. It is as though they are asleep with their eyes open.

With their chins on their hands, they occupy themselves by staring out of the window or up at the ceiling. They are certainly interested in something, but who knows what. The main

Students who are angry, afraid, or experiencing anxiety may have their arms crossed in front of their chests and their legs closed or crossed, like they are guarding their bodies.

Some students act this way merely because they are afraid of being called on by the teacher.

As we know, body language is an effective tool, along with spoken language, to convey thoughts and ideas, especially it can communicate emotion much more straightforward. Today, I will take my English teacher, Ms.Rao in class as an example.
When Ms.Rao is having class, she is always making eye contact with us as much as possible. With one hand pointing at the blackboard, she is spreading the other hand out to ask some students to answer her question. When she is immersed in her class, her eyes shine with excitement and she is very cheerful.
Possible version
My English teacher, Ms.Rao in class
If we students perform well, Ms.Rao is always clapping her hands for us and nodding her head with a slight smile on her face. From her facial expression, we know she is pleased with the students who perform well.
Though wearing a warm smile most of the time, she is really annoyed when she wears a frown, sometimes having her arms crossed in front of her chest, especially when some distracted students who are yarning appears to be sleepy during her class.
This is how I know my English teacher, Ms.Rao in class who can use body language to arouse the students’ interest and attract the students’ attention, thus to make the class lively and interesting.
