SCHOOL INTERNSHIP PHASE II - Week 8 ( July 29 - July 31)

Image
                  DAY 33 : 29 July 2024                       The final week The poem Marvellous Travel by Joshua Fernandez was started in 8E class. The supervising teacher has asked me to complete the poem before I leave. The poem was simple and easy to understand. There were no complex diction or philosophies involved. The class was interactive; the learners actively contributed their views and perspectives regarding travel and its benefits. The lesson Dreams Realised was continued in 9I. The learners were a bit disturbed in class. I had slight difficulty to manage them. I had to question them in between to ensure their attention in class.                 DAY 34 : 30 July 2024 The lesson Dreams Realised was completed in 9I today. Teaching this lesson was easier than I thought how it would be. Perhaps the familiarity of the learners with the lif...

              DAY 28 : 22 July 2024                 It's a new week again It's a Monday again and I had two consecutive hours at 8E and 9I. The remaining activities of the lesson A Shipwrecked Sailor were completed in 8E. Adjectives and its degrees of comparison were discussed in detail. The learners listened well and were active throughout the class. A 10 mark test was conducted for 9I students. The test consisted of two five mark discourse questions from the lessons Debts of Gratitude and Nothing Twice . I corrected the answer sheets the same day. The students had serious difficulty with handling the language. Most of them were unable to construct meaningful sentences and they lacked a proper base in English grammar.                  DAY 29 : 23 July 2024                   Observation day   I began the lesson Dreams...

SCHOOL INTERNSHIP PHASE II - Week 6 ( July 15 - July 19 )

Image
              DAY 24 : 15 July 2024                 A new week begins Reached school by 9.10 am and marked the morning attendance. Headed to 8E for the first hour. The chapter A Shipwrecked Sailor was continued. I could barely complete a paragraph in the class. I could not teach anything that day because the students asked one thing after the other, completely unrelated to the lesson. Only a few lines of a paragraph were discussed in class. Question tags were taught in 9I class. Just like my class on Active and Passive voice, I taught them to write question tags using five simple steps. Most students still had difficulty with identifying the auxiliary verb, and the tense of sentences. I made them do exercises in class. All questions varieties were discussed. I planned to give them more exercises in the coming classes. The 10 day intervention for my project work was started today. As a part of this, a value corne...

                DAY 19 : 8 July 2024                    A Monday again !!! I reached school by 9.15 am and marked the morning attendance. I had two consecutive hours today at 8E and 9I. However, there was a program in the school auditorium that the 8th and 9th standard students had to attend. I thus lost both my hours today. The inauguration of YIP club was held at Cotton Hill School today. YIP is a newly formed club that works in collaboration with UNICEF and K-Disc, aimed at accelerating the innovation in children and turning their ideas to reality. The event was inaugurated by the Director of General Education, Mr. Shanavas S IAS. The head of K-disc and also the representatives of UNICEF India interacted with the learners. The students were asked to register for their upcoming programs, thereby giving wings to their thoughts and innovations. The rest of the day was free f...
