WEEKLY REFLECTION SECOND PHASE (third week)

-






17 November 2025 – 21 November 2025

“The best teachers show you where to look, but don't tell you what to see". 

The third week of my second phase teaching practice was steady, busy, and truly enriching. It offered a blend of routine classroom teaching, academic responsibilities, and additional school duties that broadened my experience as a trainee teacher.

Throughout the week, I handled multiple classes and felt my confidence growing as I managed lessons, substitutions, and learner interactions. Students have now become familiar with my teaching style; they respond actively, engage willingly in discussions, and approach activities with enthusiasm.

This week involved several substitution duties, allowing me to observe different classes and gain deeper understanding of learner diversity. I was also assigned discipline duty, which helped me practice patience, classroom control, and positive behaviour management. Additionally, I participated in library work, which included arranging books and updating the library register — a task that reminded me of the importance of maintaining effective learning spaces.

A special event this week was the Road Safety Awareness Class, which offered students valuable insights and gave me an opportunity to assist and observe the coordination of such school programmes.

Weekly Reflection – First Week (FIRST PHASE)

Date: July 14 – July 17, 2025 “Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions.” The first week of my teaching practice was a journey of discovery, challenges, and small victories. As part of the B.Ed. curriculum, I, along with my friends Aleena and Aiswarya from the English Department of Fathima Memorial Training College, Mylapore, began our internship at Government HSS Anchalummood on July 14, 2025. The atmosphere of the school was very welcoming, and the staff were supportive. This week, we actively participated in various duties including substitution classes, classroom management, lunch serving, and even took on the role of judges for an extempore competition. One of the highlights of my teaching this week was taking Class 8F for the poem “The Seven Ages of Man” by William Shakespeare. While handling the class came with its fair share of challenges, especially in managing discipline, it was a great learning curve. A memorable moment was when we worked together to...

WEEKLY REFLECTION SIXTH WEEK (FIRST PHASE)

The past week of my teaching practice (Days 21–25) was both engaging and rewarding. On Day 21, after the Onam vacation, I taught Articles through the Concept Attainment Model, where students actively discovered rules through examples and non-examples. The following days (22–25) were dedicated to the inspiring chapter The Day My World Changed by Malala Yousafzai, taught using ICT. Each day, I carried the chapter forward step by step, making use of PowerPoint slides, visuals, and activity cards to bring Malala’s story to life. Students were highly motivated, sharing their thoughts on education and courage, which made the lessons more meaningful. I also had varied experiences beyond the classroom, like serving the midday meal, handling substitution hours, and managing double-period sessions. These days taught me the importance of pacing, balancing ICT with interaction, and sustaining student interest. Overall, this phase deepened my confidence as a teacher-in-training.
