Report:

I faced some problems by the similitude and the proximity of words that appeared, but after some repetitions I could have more concentration on those words, also the first time I tried, had problems because wanted to read fast and that caused that mispronounce or made mistakes while reading. Despite of that I think could do better job after some readings and because search some words that I had pronounced badly. The words are linked to make errors because the brain predicts a word that will to be pronounced. The stress is commonly another factor that provokes mistakes since one word that is mispronounced takes another sense and meaning. The activities provided in this activity helped me because I could take into account that many words have the same vowels but change the pronunciation according to the consonant or consonants that it has.

These are my suggestions:

1.      Read many times the same written.

2.      Search for phonological activities, and strange words (those that don’t know).

3.      Read aloud and record you (helps to check mistakes).

4.      Practice (since “practice makes better”).

 

Conclusion:

This activity really makes me reflect about in how my students face problems day by day, and also it will help me to be more critical with my own job.

Personally I liked this activity because paying attention to it, I can see that is like the foundation of the language, and if I can do it, I will be better.
