Teaching Practice Phase 2: Day 11

-
To observe the Anti-drug day the pledge against the use as well as encouragement of drugs was uttered by the learners following the morning prayer. I took two periods for 8F class today one a regular hour and the other a substitution. Thus I got two continuous periods in 8F and so I could complete the lesson 'The Boy Who Drew Cats'. I displayed my innovative work- the comic version of the folk-tale,  made the learners take up different character roles and act out the comic version. The learners were asked to point out the differences between the version of the folktale given in their text book and the version handed over to them in the form of the comic book. Then they were asked to discuss in groups and come up with alternative endings to the tale. The ending formulated by the learners were creative and interesting. The comic book was then passed to each bench of learners so that they could go through the same. Some of the learners asked how much time I took to complete the comic book and I told them that I utilised the vacation time for preparing the book. Before leaving the class I asked the learners whether the projector was working and their replied in negative. I then asked whether it was ok for them if I show video clips using laptop related to the lessons under study  and they said that it was alright.
We served mid day meal for the learners as directed.
In the afternoon, a poster making competition was held for the students and the anti-drug day was celebrated with the learners gathering in the school ground, carrying placards displaying quotes against drug use. Students from the pre primary section upholding the placards were guided by the teachers en route the road for campaigning against drugs. Mime was performed with the same purpose inside the school premise spearheaded  by government officials from the State Excise department.  Pledge against this social malody was made there also. The posters prepared by the learners were displayed in the notice board.
SPC members and JRC members together led a campaign carrying a banner against substance and drug use. The observation of the Anti-drug day at GGHSS, Manacaud, was indeed a pageant to watch.
During the second last period I got a substitution in 5C class. The learners were collaboratively working on posters related to the  anti drug day celebration. I let than continue with their work silently.  After line duty we left the school.

I engaged two periods for 8E class today. Since the lesson 'The Nightingale and the Rose' was completed, I gave the learners a few activities based on the same. A story board completion chart was displayed and the learners were randomly called to complete it. After the task, the teacher confirmed the answers and cleared doubts.  I also made the learners do a passage editing activity and error correction activity. During the last period, I conducted a test for them on the poem 'The Sower'. The examination was held for 15 marks and for thirty minutes duration. Since I could not take print outs of the question paper, I wrote down the questions on the board and asked the learners to write down the answers.  After collecting the answer sheets, I asked the pupils to complete a few activities,  including poster making activity given in their English Reader and submit the works by Monday.

"I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old, familiar carols play, And wild and sweet The words repeat Of peace on earth, good-will to men!" Thus sang the American poet Henry Wadsworth Long fellow.

I engaged two periods for 9F today and completed the story 'The Last Leaf' for them. Then I gave necessary instructions to them so that they could complete the textual exercises on their own. I asked the pupils to come up with alternative titles for the lesson . I also dictated to them notes on the poem 'On Killing a Tree' which they took down in their notebooks.  For 8E class, I continued with the story 'A Day in the Country' using vocabulary and powerpoint slides as aid. I had to rush the lesson a bit since their portions were pending and revision classes were about to begin prior to the Christmas examination.  Preparations for the upcoming state-level vocational fests have already begun. My fellow teacher trainees took Physical Education classes during the second and third periods. Manju ma'am asked me to hold a retest for 9F students who could not attend the mid-term examination on Monday. Overall, the day went as usual, in an uneventful mann...
