Day 4:(November 10th)

My week began by immersing myself in the school's routine, starting with punctual arriv

al and register signing. The morning was characterized by a focused examination atmosphere, during which I contributed by assisting with discipline duty and the collection and counting of test papers. This was followed by a successful fourth-period class with 8E, where I effectively concluded the lesson on "Get Together." In the afternoon, a discussion with my mentor, Sunitha Miss, regarding upcoming portions proved highly beneficial. As she was occupied with other duties, I was entrusted with conducting extra classes for both 5D and 7D Where I taught the same chapter and provided supplementary notes. While the consecutive teaching was demanding, the vibrant energy from ongoing Kalolsavam practices across the campus created an infectious, lively backdrop. The day concluded with a productive exchange of teaching strategies with fellow trainees. It was a profoundly productive day that significantly bolstered my classroom confidence.

Day 5: Adapting to Schedule Changes and Embracing Festivity (November 11th)

This day was a testament to the importance of flexibility in the teaching profession. After my timely arrival and lesson preparation, my scheduled class for 8E was preempted by the morning unit test. I seamlessly transitioned to other responsibilities, including discipline duty in the UP section and a substitution class for 8D, where I introduced
a new lesson and distributed notes. The post-lunch period was dedicated to quiet lesson planning in the library, while the school itself pulsed with the sounds of diverse Kalolsavam preparations—from dance and drama to duffmuttu and kolkali. The afternoon presented a rewarding challenge in the form of a substitution class with 6E. Managing their energetic, slightly mischievous behavior effectively provided a great sense of accomplishment. A concluding discussion on teaching methodologies with Sunitha Miss provided valuable closure to the day. Departing the school amidst a pleasant evening rain, I reflected on a day filled with meaningful, new experiences that enriched my practical understanding of a teacher's dynamic role.

Day 6: (November 12th)

My day began with the morning register, after which I was immediately assigned to a substitution class for 7A, as several teachers were occupied with Sub District Kalolsavam duties. This flexibility is becoming a valuable part of the training experience. I later conducted my scheduled class for 8E in the fourth period, where the lesson was delivered successfully. The afternoon brought another rewarding substitution duty, this time with 7B. This class holds a special significance for me, and it was particularly encouraging to have Father Bijo present. His presence was not only supportive for the students but also for me, as he took a moment to share insightful advice regarding my academic pursuits and teaching methodology. The day concluded at 4:15 p.m., leaving me with a sense of accomplishment from the positive interactions and the meaningful mentorship received, making it a truly memorable day.

Day 7:(November 13th)

After arriving on time and completing line duty, I commenced the day's teaching with a successful second-period class. Following lesson preparation and a brief tea break, I once again had the pleasure of supervising 7B. Their consistent good behavior and attentiveness continue to be a source of great satisfaction. The afternoon featured a significant event: an NCC flag-hoisting ceremony. It was a proud moment to participate alongside the NCC candidates, the principals, Father Bijo, staff secretary Binil John Sir, and Aneesh Sir, the NCC in-charge. The ceremony instilled a strong sense of school spirit and discipline. The day's professional enrichment continued with a collaborative discussion on teaching strategies over tea with fellow trainees. Departing at 4:15 p.m., I reflected on a day that was both pleasant and professionally enriching, blending effective classroom management with broader school community involvement.

Day 8: Celebration, Challenge, and Resilience (November 14th)

Today was marked by the vibrant celebration of Children's Day, honouring Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and his belief in children as the nation's future. The LP section enlivened the campus with a colourful rally, featuring students in beautiful costumes. Academically, I managed extra classes for 8D and 8C, followed by another productive substitution period with my favourite class, 7B, whose discipline is consistently commendable. My planned seventh-period lesson for 8E was cut short due to an NCC program, requiring me to escort the students to the grounds after only five minutes. The day, however, also presented a challenge when a student from 8E misbehaved. I addressed this by promptly reporting the incident, leading to appropriate disciplinary action. Despite this event, the day was filled with valuable learning experiences, from managing celebrations to upholding classroom discipline, ultimately contributing to my growth and resilience as a teacher.
