WEEKLY REFLECTION ( JUNE 19- 23, 2023)

It was the second week of teaching practice. Regarding the lesson templates, I completed 4 lesson plans this week. I had taken an ICT based class and activity based class. Students has shown generous interest in ICT based classes. The first day of the week was Reading Day, so that the students and music teacher presented a few programs in the assembly. Yoga day was observed in school particularly NCC and SPC cadets. Due to heavy rain at morning, yoga training was not conducted during assembly. 

The government issued an order to consider June 23 as Dry day at schools. Unfortunately, a strike came on that day and most of the students were absent. Even though, we went to the school, along with a few students and teachers we cleaned some areas in school. Noon session was occupied by a pre charted PTA general meeting consisting of teachers, students representatives and parents. 

Passing two weeks, I think I have made improvements in managing classroom, students, following the steps, procedures in lesson template. I asked students to give a feedback. Every comment was positive except about my speed. They suggested to reduce my speed. Hopefully, I will correct it by the coming days.

INNOVATIVE WORK

The innovative work undertaken by me is a newspaper "The Happiness Express". I took the content of a prose "The Trio" and presented it to the students in a novel way. I crafted a newspaper by sticking to the theme and content of the chapter . I crafted such a newspaper by keeping in mind the objectives like information , education, interpretation ,inspiration, providing discussion forum and entertainment. I segmented 6 pages with local news, international news, sports pages, editorial page, and common information . I tried to frame the news paper similar to the structure and pattern of real newspaper. Students have to come forward and read out the newspaper articles, events and have to collaboratively solve the activities included in the newspaper. CLICK HERE TO SEE INNOVATIVE WORK REPORT.   LINK

I was personally impressed with the discourse and students also voluntarily par
