TEACHING PRACTISE PHASE 2 - WEEKLY REFLECTION 6

  12 January 2026  The twenty-fourth day of my teaching practice was a meaningful return to the school routine, with a strong focus on moral education and social responsibility. In the morning assembly, there was a heartfelt appeal for students to donate their small personal savings to support a peer’s cancer treatment, which sparked a deep sense of empathy across the school. I started the day supervising the KG section, reconnecting with the younger students through their activities. Later, I was on invigilation duty for the Chief Minister’s Academy examination, gaining valuable insight into formal testing procedures. In the third period with I had class in 8B, . The students were actively engaged, identifying attributes and examples, which made the lessons very successful. The day ended with my usual help during the noon meal and dispersal duties, leaving me feeling balanced in both teaching and administrative roles.

13 January 2026 The twenty-fifth day required a high degree of adaptability as the school underwent the SIR verification process. With regular workspaces occupied by the verification teams, we had to be flexible and work from different areas throughout the day. Despite this minor disruption to the routine, I maintained my professional commitment and took my first period and the fifth period on class 9A as scheduled.  After the class, I fulfilled my noon meal duties and assisted with the evening dispersal at 4:15 p.m., gaining a better understanding of how a school functions during administrative inspections.

14 January 2026 The twenty-sixth day was an exceptionally proud moment for our school community, as we celebrated Devasrita Ram from Class 9B for her success in the state-level Kalolsavam Ashtapadi competition. This atmosphere of achievement provided a perfect backdrop for my optional observation conducted by Ms. Sreelakshmi from the Department of Mathematics to observe Keerthy Molly Jacob. During the third period with Class 8B, she continued the lesson on "Sides and Angles." she focused on illustrating the relationship between geometric properties while the observer provided constructive feedback to help me improve my classroom interaction and explanation techniques. After the observation, we joined the other teachers for the noon meal duty and lunch, followed by a productive afternoon of record-keeping. there was no class for me today.  I signed out at 4:15 p.m., feeling encouraged by the professional growth and positive feedback received.

16 January 2026 The twenty-seventh day was unusually quiet, as a large portion of the student body (Standards 1 to 9) had departed at 3:00 a.m. for a school tour to Vagamon. With the student strength significantly reduced, the school felt very different, yet I proceeded with my scheduled duties and substitution classes. The rest of the day followed a steady rhythm of routine administrative tasks and noon meal service. I concluded the week by assisting with dispersal duties at 4:00 p.m., satisfied that I had utilized the quiet environment to engage effectively with my students
