3rd week of Teaching Practice

Monday to Wednesday: The Routine of a Teacher
​The first half of the week was a great way to settle into the daily flow of school life.
​Regular Working Days: I managed my assigned classes, focusing on lesson delivery and classroom management. The students are starting to get used to my teaching style, and I'm learning how to better engage them.
​Substitutions: I covered several substitution periods, which is always a good test of quick thinking and adaptability! It gives me a chance to interact with different age groups and subject matter.
​Discipline Duty: As part of the teacher on duty, I helped oversee the hallways and general student behavior during breaks. It's an important aspect of school environment maintenance and provides valuable insight into the non-academic interactions of the students.
​📝 Thursday: The Thrill of the Spelling Bee
​Thursday brought a fantastic change of pace with an organized Spelling Bee competition for the students.
​This was such an energetic event! It was wonderful to see the students' dedication to language and their competitive spirit.
​I was involved in helping organize the logistics and judging the rounds. The tension and excitement in the room were palpable, and the level of spelling skill was seriously impressive! Events like this really highlight the importance of vocabulary and effective communication.
​🧑‍🏫 Friday: The Observation Day
​The week culminated on Friday with a significant event: my formal observation by Alan Sir during the 3rd period with Class 8C.
​Class 8C, 3rd Period: I delivered the planned lesson, aiming to incorporate all the feedback I've received so far.
​It's always nerve-wracking to have an observer, but it also pushes you to perform at your best. I focused on student-centered activities and ensuring clear learning objectives were met.
​I'm looking forward to receiving Alan Sir's feedback. These observations are the most valuable part of the practice, as they highlight areas for immediate improvement and growth as an educator.
​Overall, Week 3 was highly productive. The mix of routine responsibilities and special events like the Spelling Bee kept things engaging, and the observation provides a clear benchmark for my development.

Second week of Teaching Practice

Image
The second week of teaching practice, from July 21st to 25th, 2025, was particularly engaging. Monday, July 21st, was a highlight as we celebrated Moon Day, marking the anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Teachers utilized this opportunity to conduct special lessons, activities, and even a small exhibition, bringing the wonders of space exploration to life for the students. This interdisciplinary approach not only made learning fun but also allowed us, as aspiring educators, to observe and participate in creative teaching methodologies. The remainder of the week involved deeper dives into lesson planning, classroom management, and developing effective assessment strategies, building upon the foundational experiences of the first week.
