WEEKLY REFLECTION (JAN 23- 27, 2023)

I t was the 5th week of teaching practice. Altogether everything went smooth in this week. On Monday, Harsha Ma'am came to observe the class. It was a part of optional visit. I took the 2nd LP from the chapter 'The Trio' and given the activity -characteristic sketch of Rajam. Students dynamically discussed in groups and provided correct answers. I think I was improved from the first spot of teaching practice. I rectified my corrections which was pointed out by Harsha ma'am in the first round of observation. I followed the steps more sequentially and implemented it effectively. Even though, Ma'am pointed out some areas to be taken care of. Mostly, she reviewed with a positive feedback this time and awarded B+ grade.  In this week, I completed 4 lesson plans. I have taken Direct instruction model on the topic 'Active and Passive Voice' in 9th standard. It was a great task to implement models in classroom. I think, I effectively transacted the session.
