SCVBHS CHIRAYANKEEZH WEEK 4 (3 JULY 2023-7JULY 2023)
Fourth week
During this week, the school had conducted unit tests for the students to check their level of performance and to track their learning. The students had two exams on one day and we were also asked to perform the role of invigilators. I and one of my peers , Anjana went to the class as invigilators and we were very strict inorder to eliminate malpractices during the examination . We thoroughly enjoyed the whole process and functioned our role as invigilators with utmost responsibility, dedication and commitment. There were moments where we grabbed the textbook of one of the students who tried to copy. From the next day onwards, the students were afraid to commit such mistakes and they learned from it.
On the next day, it was the death anniversary of Sri Vaikom Muhammad Basheer . The school couldn't conduct the assembly due to bad weather. The children had their unit exams as well
Peer observation
Today I observed the class of one of my peers, Akhila. It was a good class and she utilized many effective strategies to give more learning experiences to the students. She made use of innovative models, activity cards and other effective teaching and learning aids. I found some of the students restless, and the teacher was struggling to handle and manage discipline . The teacher was dedicated and passionate. Then I had my class during the sixth period where my peers Anamika and Indrajith had paid a visit to observe the class . They made positive remarks about my class and that turned out to be a wonderful moment of that day .
On the next day, the unit exams came to an end. I had utilized my period to record the video of my class as a part of the one of the class observations . The students co-operated well and they provided answers to the questions asked. They did the activities effectively too. I could provide them enough learning experiences with the aid of teaching strategies and audio- visual aids .
On the next day, as the unit exams culminated yesterday, the teachers had started distributing the answersheets in their respective classes. Today, one of my peers Anjana came to my class for the second observation and she suggested some points to be improved and made some positive remarks too. Later, I paid a visit to her class for the observation and found her as a dedicated teacher with great content competency. But I felt the teacher required more pleasantness on the face . Eventhough there were distractions and restless attitude from the students, she managed the situation well and tried to maintain discipline all throughout the class. I found her dedicated and passionate towards teaching and she did well with the utilization of appropriate teaching aids and strategies.
