Weekly Reflection of Teacher Internship Programme.
Weekly Reflection (Peer teaching)
(2/2/2021-10/2/2021)
Due to the covid 19 pandemic situation,we were not able to take classes for students in the school.So we were given an opportunity to take classes for our peer group(15 class) and online face to face teaching for school students(15 class)...
On 2 feb 2021,we started our peer teaching. I choose the unit 4,'Dawn of Hope' from 9th standard.. In this unit, I select the chapter 'The Jungle Air crash' by Juliane Koepcke.. Before starting my class I prepared a well lesson plan and suitable teaching learning materials such as charts, activity cards, ppt slides,video clips, pictures etc...
My first peer teaching was very effective for my peers, because it is an adventurous real plane survival story of a 16 yr old girl, Juliane Koepcke.. On the whole, I satisfied with my first class..
All days in this week,pupils were very co-operative during the classes and it helped me in the smooth running of classes. They were eager to know the story.
(11/2/2021-25/2/2021)
In this week also I continued the chapter ‘The Jungle Air Crash’ and pupils were very sad to hear the predicament of Juliane.
On 11/02/2021,I take the class with an innovative work-Story Board.. It's full of drawings and some descriptions of the whole story. And it is very helpful to the students for understanding the overall content of the chaper, and I finish the chapter 'The Jungle Air Crash' with very satisfaction....
On 12/02/2021,I started a new chapter The Last Leaf by O.Henry. I tried to evoke the power of hope among them through this chapter. I completed first 2 lesson plans in this week. Daily I checked their knowledge about the previous class. Most of the students answered the questions clearly. I found that some student lacked the confidence to answer in English.
On 15,16,22 feb 2021,I take the grammar portion using concept attainment model, direct instruction model and advance organizer model.I studied Future tense, preposition, and pronoun... Three classes were very effective for my peers.... And also 22/02/2021,is my last peer teaching..
Weekly Reflection
(Face to face online teaching)
(03/02/2021-11/02/2021)
On 03/02/2021,we started our online face to face teaching.I take the class for 15 students of standard 8.I choose the unit 4,'Flowers and Showers', and the chapter is 'The Nightingale and the Rose' by Oscar Wilde.It was very nice experience to me, because all students are very energetic and reactive..
The story,which portrays relationship between nature and living beings. The students liked the story and they responded with great interest. The difficult words and its meanings were taught with the help of ICT .
On 11/02/2021,I finish the story 'The Nightingale and The Rose' and I conducted a diagnostic test. It is a way to find out the difficulties of students in a particular area and I provide them remedial teaching. Most of the students weakly in the portion of grammar 'Adverb',and I help them to understanding about adverb through remedial teaching..
(12/02/2021-26/02/2021)
In this week, our last week of internship teaching practice.On 12/02/2021,I takes the poem 'Song of the Flower' by Khalil Gibran.It is based on the theme nature also. And students were interested in my class, because a flower is the speaker in the poem, and it tells its life cycle with comparing different seasons.. And also I dealt with 'Metaphor', and ask them to write the critical appreciation of the poem.
On 15/02/2021,I started a new chapter in the same unit,'A Day in the Country' by Anton Chekhov.It was also based on the theme 'Nature', Kindness of a young girl is the main story.
On 16/02/2021,I continued with the chapter 'A Day in the Country', I used attractive ppt slides for making the class effective.
On 22/02/2021,I conducted an Achievement test for the chapters,'The Nightingale and the Rose' and ' Song of the Flower'.. I find out most of the students are in the position of average level.
On 26/02/2021, I continued with the chapter 'A Day in the Country', students were responding very well, but it was the last day of my online face to face teaching.. Really I am very unhappy to say good bye to my students....
