I have attended the 4th and the 8th grades and decided to conduct lessons in these classes  for the reasons that I have never worked with primary school pupils(4th) and while attending lessons in 8th grade I saw some problems connected not only with their puberty period and accepted it as a challenge .

Grade 4 
I have conducted 5 lessons in the 4th grade and learnt much about working with little kids .the first lesson was close to fail ,kids were active but not used to active involving lessons and also they were much used to Georgian language which I avoided and made them get used to using English and I was also giving instructions in English ,using gestures ,miming to help them understand .I tried to use much of what i have learnt in methods of teaching English and multimedia in order to make lessons interesting for them and engage them as much as possible .Here are lesson plans links which you may find interesting .

Grade 8 
I have conducted 3 lessons in the 8th  grade .the first lesson was very difficult for me .First of all students were making noise ,not listening ,some of them were even aggressive .Half of the students did not have homework and despite interesting activities the level of their motivation was very low .But the following lessons which I planned according to their interests and used methods which would motivate them and used some interesting activities .And the last lesson impressed me  a lot .Students had their homework written ,they were motivated to be engaged in the lesson ,and the noise they were making was caused by their work in groups and high level of activation .And even disruptive students were involved in the lesson and I achieved what I aimed –I activated disruptive students and gave them opportunity to talk freely and get enaged in discussions .Here are links of 3 lessons
