Teaching practice reflection
FIRST WEEK
Second phase teaching practice started last Wednesday. I got
8th and 9th standard . Teacher introduced me to the
students in the first class . The class which I had to take with the lesson
plan was standard 8. I collected the timetable from the teacher. We were
allowed to sit in the hostel section . Also teacher gave the key of her room
and said us to sit there. We went there and sat there . But it was so difficult
to write since there was no desk. At last we got a desk on the 3rd
day. Equivalency exam was going on , so some classes were given holiday
alternatively . My class was also given holiday , so I left my one class. I
started my lesson . I had to go to 9th standard also . Teacher asked
me to go to 9th standard when ever they had free . Children called
and I went to 9th standard.
SECOND WEEK
Last Monday there was assembly . Prizes were distributed to
those children who won in the youth festival. I used to go to both of my
classes . I was taking ratio in 8th standard . I found that there
were some children who found difficulty in doing the problem. I tried my level
best and repeated for them many times. Later I felt happy because children
asked me not to say the answer till they do and they did all the problem very
quickly .One day when I went to the class I found some children standing on
oneside with notebooks in their hands , when I inquired I came to knew that
they were given punishment by their Malayalam teacher. I felt a little bad
because their teacher asked them not to sit in the class until they finish
their work. Also our observation was started .First phase of observation was
done by my teacher and she said what all changes has to brought. I tried to do
in that way.I taught chidren about a mathematics software geogebra , but they
were not aware of it. Then I came to know to their teacher does not use
geogebra even it was in their text .
Also general teacher and my concern teacher came for observation . One
of my friend lost her anklet and two students of higher secondary got it gave
it to the principal

observation . Sub district youth fest started this week . We were asked to go
with the students to Boys Higher Secondary School. It was a nice and new
experience . Children were very happy to go. We with some other teachers went
with chidren .But all went to the front and returned back to school. It made
the children tired. Most of the students were not in class and most of the
teachers were not in the school . One of our teacher came for observation . As

students who gave her anklet which they got from the street.She said thanks to
them. There was a program conducted on the topic farming So I lost one of my class . I did revision . I revised
