📑24/09/2024  We arrived at the school at 8:30 after the Onam vacation. I met with the principal and Ajesh Sir, who gave me the revised timetable. My new assigned teacher is Virginia Ma'am, and she gave me 8F, the same class I had taught before the timetable change. The students were happy to see me again, and I was able to remember most of their names. I started a new chapter, 'Chemical Changes,' and they actively participated in the teaching-learning process. 📑25- 09 - 2024   Taught the topic "Momentum" in 9A1 using ICT and engaging activities, and also reviewed their notebooks. Additionally, I conducted a session in 8F on "The Impact of Social Media on Health and Self-Esteem" as part of the NSS Day celebration. During the session, I discussed the benefits and drawbacks of social media, the health issues related to its overuse, and provided proper awareness about the importance of controlled use, with the support of ICT. 📑26- 09 - 2024    I taught th...

Challenged, inspired, and growing with every lesson

     📑19/08/2024 I was assigned kitchen duty for the day, where I actively participated in assisting with tasks and ensuring smooth operations. Alongside this, I also received substitutions in class 9 A1. During the substitution, I effectively utilized the opportunity to teach the topic "velocity-time graph and equations of motion." I explained the concepts in detail, focusing on the relationship between velocity, time, and acceleration, and their graphical representation. To reinforce understanding, I solved various problems on the board, encouraging students to participate and clarify their doubts. The session was interactive, and I made sure to adapt the pace to suit the students’ grasp of the topic. Overall, it was a productive and fulfilling experience, blending my responsibilities both in the kitchen and the classroom. 📑20/08/2024 The day began with morning duty, ensuring discipline and setting a positive tone for the day. Kitchen duty followed, where I assisted i...

📑Aug 12  The sixth day was started with the morning duty. In the first hour there were coloring competition. At 1.30 , we were assigned the lab duty. We completed several records and organized them. At 2.50 pm I took chemistry class at 8 F and taught the portion "atoms and molecules" And physics class in 4 rth hour and covered the topic " Acceleration ". After the session, I felt satisfied as the students were highly engaged and responsive, which really brightened my day. The lab duty was also quite enjoyable....  📑Aug 13 The day was quite disappointing. Due to  timetable change, I have to switch my classes from 9B1 to 9A1 and from 8F to 8B. This means starting the lesson all over again in 9A1, which I had already completed in 9B1. In 8B, there was no PowerPoint available, so I couldn't use ICT for the class, making it a real challenge. Despite this, I did my best to teach effectively and covered the topic "Symbols of Elements" once more. In the afte...

📑05-08- 2024  On the first day of our teaching practice, we arrived at 8:45 AM and met with the headmistress. She gave us instructions and wished us well for the upcoming 40 days. The day was truly inspiring. We gathered in the school auditorium, where the leader and assistant leader assigned our duties. I was given kitchen duty in the afternoon, which was a refreshing new experience. I taught my first Chemistry class during the last hour with the 8F students. Although they were a bit restless and I felt slightly confused at first, I was able to manage the situation. It was a wonderful experience, and I’m looking forward to what the future holds.  📑06-08-24 Second day of teaching practice. At 9.30 am I entered the class 9 B1 and started the topic velocity and speed. In the third and 6 th hour I have peer observation at 8 F and 9 J. The day was filled with diverse activities. Peer observation helped me to enhance classroom management skills and students participation techniqu...
