2. Weekly journal …feb…..week 2
This week we have started our online teaching practice. We used Google Meet as the platform. In my class there are eight students and our class time is 7.00 pm. I got 8th standard students and I take the 8th unit to teach. This week we discussed the chapter The Happiness Machine(ഭൂമിയിലെ ജലം, ജല പരിവർത്തി )in which the author shows as what is the real happiness. My students were very energetic. I got opportunity to interact with them. This was a nice week.
Not only the online classes, we also started our peer teaching this week. We divided into 3 groups for peer teaching. It was also a nice experience for us. We came to understand how each one of us are gifted in teaching through different ways. It was a time were we learnt about our strength and weakness.
3. Weekly journal – feb- 3rd week
We continued our online and peer teaching this week. In online teaching we conducted diagnostic test this week. Most of the students take part in this test. This help us to know about how much they understand and their weak points. It also help us to reflect ourselves, our way of teaching, points that we need to take care of etc…
In our morning time we had peer teaching. In this week we started to plan about our community living camp. We formed an energetic team to coordinate the whole camp. As per the instructions of our teachers, we planned to conduct the camp from 22/02/2021 to 26/02/2021. We created five different teams for food and discipline in these five days.
4. Weekly journal – feb -4th week
This was an another week which created a lot of memories about our B.ED life. Community living camp - a well informative, entertaining, thought provoking as well as an energetic time for us. This week help us to bring back our joyous moment which we lost in the past few months. First day we had a session on how to be a good teacher and a theatre practice on folk songs. On the second day, we had an energetic session – yoga and practice. Afternoon we got a well informative session on counseling. On the next day we conducted a film festival. On the fourth day we had another session on counseling and after we had theatre practice on acting. For some of us it was a new experience. On the last day we had cultural programmes. We enjoyed all these days very well.
Apart from the camp, we continued our online teaching and conducted an achievement test. We got good remarks from the students. We are grateful for the students, teachers, our dear friends who helped us in this journey.
