Teaching practice - week 2

 Day 6

Today was a fulfilling day in my teaching journey. It began with line duty, ensuring students assembled in an orderly manner, setting a disciplined tone for the day. My lesson with Class 8 was particularly rewarding—students were enthusiastic, actively participating in discussions, answering questions, and connecting the lesson to real-life scenarios. Using reflective questions and peer discussions proved effective in deepening their engagement.  

Later, I supervised students after their unit test, maintaining discipline as they exited the examination hall. The day ended at 4:15 pm, leaving me with a strong sense of accomplishment. This experience reinforced how small adjustments in teaching methods—like incorporating real-world connections—can significantly enhance learning. It also strengthened my confidence in classroom management and student interaction. Moving forward, I aim to integrate more collaborative activities to sustain student interest and make lessons even more dynamic.  

Day 7  

Today was another meaningful day in my teaching practice. I started with morning duties, including attendance and line duty, ensuring students entered school in an organized manner. During the 4th hour, I taught a lesson where students were highly engaged—they eagerly discussed questions and shared their perspectives, making the classroom atmosphere lively and interactive.  

Since I didn’t have noon meal duty today, I enjoyed lunch at 12:45 pm with fellow trainees, exchanging insights about our teaching experiences. The day concluded at 4:45 pm after signing the evening attendance. Today reinforced the importance of student-centered teaching—when learners are given opportunities to express themselves, the lesson becomes more impactful. This experience has motivated me to continue refining my strategies to keep students actively involved in their learning journey.  

Day - 8  

Today’s teaching practice was different from the usual routine. Due to a unit test scheduled for the 6th and 7th hours, my planned class with 8th graders was postponed. Instead, I assisted in supervising the examination, ensuring a calm and focused environment for students. Watching them fully engaged in their test was a reminder of the importance of structured assessments in their academic growth.  

After the exam ended at 3:45 pm, I helped manage student movement as they left the hall, ensuring discipline and order. The day concluded at 4:45 pm. Though I missed teaching today, this experience gave me valuable insight into exam supervision and the need for flexibility in a teacher’s schedule. It also highlighted how even non-teaching duties contribute to a well-functioning school environment.  

Day 9   

Today was a rewarding day that strengthened my confidence as a teacher. I began with line duty, ensuring students entered school in an orderly manner. Later, I taught Class 8, where interactive activities encouraged student participation and made the lesson engaging. The students responded well, showing curiosity and enthusiasm throughout the session.  

In the afternoon, I took on noon meal duty, helping serve food and manage students efficiently. By 12:35 pm, all students had been served, and after completing my responsibilities, I had lunch at 1:55 pm. The day ended at 4:15 pm, leaving me with a sense of achievement. Today reinforced how discipline and engaging teaching methods go hand in hand to create a positive learning environment. It also reminded me of the importance of balancing classroom instruction with other school duties—a skill I’ll continue to refine as I grow in my teaching career.
