2 nd week reflection

 The second week of teaching practice was marked by both learning and engagement. From August 12 to August 16, I conducted classes in 8J and  9F, continuing to build on the foundational concepts introduced last week. On August 14, Wednesday, the school hosted a vibrant Maths Fair. The day was filled with excitement as I was assigned duties to oversee several competitions. This experience was eye-opening, as I got to witness firsthand the creative ways in which students approached complex problems. The week concluded on August 16, Friday, with class elections, where the first two periods were dedicated to selecting new class leaders. Although I lost a teaching period, it was compensated later in the day. Finally   I helped to transform an old math lab into a vibrant and modern learning new lab. This week not only strengthened my teaching skills but also deepened my connection with the students as I participated in various school activities.

In lesson template No: 3, for doing more problems for practicing the idea of ratio of two quantities, I prepared a lesson template on 'Inquiry Training Model'. As tis was the continuation of problems started in the last cla...

  In this week, I took 9  lessons in total. Also, on Monday, I had my 2nd optional observation class by Sheeja teacher. There was a state-wide campaign program on drug abuse hosted by Cottonhill school on October 2nd, as part of the Gandhi Jayanti celebrations. The program was arranged by the Education Department, Govt. of Kerala, in which Hon'ble Education minister Shri. V. Shivankutty inaugurated the debate stage.  I studied some sections on the chapter identities in class 8. Inductive method is used as the method of teaching. The interaction between teacher and student was good. I can manage the class. My blackboard work was near and legible. For some of the class I used activity card, and used chart for presentation. I give proper reinforcement to the students. The students give proper response to my question. I think the overall performance was good in this week.
