WEEKLY REFLECTION
(Third semester)

28/6/16 – 01/07/16
            As per the B. Ed curriculum our third semester teaching practice for forty days started on 28th June 2016. I got G. H. S.S, Koickal or my internship programme. Maths option trainees Shabna and Mubeena and English option trainee Soorya were there with me. I got class IX A for teaching. The concerned teacher assigned me to take unit I and II. As a B. Ed trainee, the school experience was a new experience for me. I started the first chapter ‘Nobility of Service’ this week.

04/07/16 – 08/07/16
            I continued the same chapter and completed it with all its textual activities. This week I started a new poem ‘Song of a Dream’ also. I put all my effort to teach them poetic devices. They showed great co-operation and tried to understand all the poetic devices used in the poem.  Pupils response was good.

11/07/16 – 15/07/16
            In this week, I completed the poem and started the next chapter ‘Maternity’. Pupils were very active and they were very eager to know the story. Their response gave me a sense of satisfaction. Our general teacher Sangeetha visited our school this week for observation.

18/07/16 – 22/07/16
            This week I continued the same chapter. Pupils were very active during scaffolding questions and we completed some textual activities related to this chapter. In this week, our optional teacher Ambili came for observation.

25/07/16 – 29/07/16
            I completed the chapter ‘Maternity’ and started a new poem ‘Song of the Rain’ by Khalil Gibran. It was a philosophical poem and I struggled to make the students understand the theme of the poem. I think I had succeeded in this task because pupils responded correctly to my questions. I completed the poem and all the textual activities.

01/08/16 – 05/08/16
            In this week, I conducted a test paper to evaluate the performance of my students. Some students’ performance was very bad and I had to give them a remedial class. I began the play ‘Listen to the Mountain’ this week. There was an enactment on every class and it was a different experience for me. Pupils also enjoyed the enactment.

08/08/16 – 12/08/16
            I continued the play this week. Pupils were very disturbed after understanding that we are responsible for the destruction of ecosystem. I am happy that all of said unanimously that they will do everything they can to save our ecosystem.

16/08/16 – 19/08/16
            This week I completed the play and started and completed the new lesson ‘A Letter to an Uncle’ by C. V. Raman. To introduce the lesson, I made them familiar with famous letters of great personalities.  The problems raised in the letter were discussed with pictures for better understanding.

23/08/16 – 26/08/16

            In this week, I used teaching models for effective teaching. The play ‘Listen to the Mountain’ was taken for role play model. Pupils grasped the theme of the lesson and the elements of role play. Adjectives were taught using advance organizer model and conditional clause was taught using concept attainment model. We completed our first teaching practice session and we expressed our sincere gratitude to the headmistress and all other teachers for their support and co-operation.
