Weekly reflection - 2- Internship phase 1

-

 The second week of my internship was a blend of celebrations, teaching, observations, and new learnings. Since the school had holidays in between, we had regular classes only on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, with an additional session on Saturday.






On Monday (21 July), the school celebrated Moon Day, as the actual date (20 July) was a holiday. The campus was filled with creativity and excitement—students came dressed as astronauts, displayed models of rockets, the solar system, and other space-related exhibits. It was inspiring to see how well they conveyed their ideas about space and the universe. 





A special speech and quiz were also part of the celebrations. 





That day, my option teacher observed my class, and I also handled a few substitution hours.

On Wednesday (23 July), I took my lesson using charts to make the content more engaging. It was a good experience, and my teacher appreciated my blackboard work while also reminding me to improve my classroom management. The feedback was valuable for my growth as a teacher.


On Friday (25 July), I continued my lesson in the first hour and used some of my substitution periods to provide notes to the students. I also encouraged them to read directly from the textbook so that I could understand their reading ability and comprehension levels.



Finally, on Saturday (26 July), the school functioned till 2:30 p.m. I continued with my lesson, and this time, I could see a better response from the students. Their interaction and enthusiasm gave me confidence and joy as a teacher.


Overall, Week 2 was a wonderful experience where I not only celebrated learning moments with students but also received constructive feedback, improved my teaching strategies, and built a stronger connection with my class.

  CAMP -  EKATHA. In today’s educational context, teacher education goes beyond classroom learning to focus on the holistic development of future teachers. As part of this vision, the B.Ed. programme includes the Community Living Camp, which offers student-teachers a valuable opportunity to learn through shared living, cooperation, and social engagement. The camp helps nurture essential qualities such as leadership, empathy, self-discipline, teamwork, and social responsibility. In this spirit, a five-day Community Living Camp titled “EKATHA – Arise, Awake and Realize the Power You Hold” was organised from 26th to 30th October 2025.

  Weekly Reflection – Week 7 of My School Internship Week 7 of my internship was filled with active teaching, observations, co-curricular engagements, and meaningful learning experiences. Each day offered opportunities to improve my teaching skills and develop a deeper understanding of classroom dynamics. Day 31 – 15 September 2025 I reached the school by 9:00 a.m. and began my first period in Class IX A, where I continued and concluded the chapter “The Toilet.” The lesson focused on enhancing students’ comprehension and vocabulary skills. Using the textbook and flashcards as my teaching–learning resources, I guided students through reading activities, questioning, and a group task. Their engagement and improved confidence in using new vocabulary made the lesson truly fulfilling. I was glad to see how students related events from the story to their personal experiences. Later, I had substitution periods in Classes VIII A and IX A, during which I provided additional notes related to...
