Week 12 of Practicum !!

Image
 DAY 57 (Monday,  25th November 2024) As for Day 57, I started my Week 12 at school as usual. The highlight of the day was when I relieved a Year 2 class, 2 Ungku Aziz. At first, I wasn’t sure what activity to do but then I remembered that kids love to draw. So, I asked them to draw their dream house. One of the students drew a tree house, which I found quite creative and imaginative. For me, it was an outside-the-box idea because dreaming of a tree house reflects the magical and whimsical world of a child’s imagination. I was truly amazed by her drawing. The rest of my day went as usual, and that’s all for the beginning of Week 12! DAY 58 (Tuesday, 26th November 2024) As for Day 58, nothing much happened that day and it was just like any other day. I had a few classes and also relieved a class. During my free time in the teacher's room, I took the opportunity to complete my lesson plan for the week. Oh, and that’s what my table looks like! It’s quite simple since I’m only her...

Week 11 of Practicum !!

 DAY 52 (Monday, 18th November 2024) As for Day 52, I started my day at school with the opening ceremony of PPKI Week during the school assembly. The gimmick was amazing, as they used LEGO props on the stage. All the kids were so excited to watch the ceremony. Later, I had a class with 4 Hamka, which was also my second observation with my mentor, Teacher Dini. The students were thrilled to participate in various activities during the lesson. I rewarded them when they answered the worksheets correctly, and they seemed really happy about it. That’s all for my first day of the week! DAY 53 (Tuesday, 19th November 2024) As for Day 53, there was an aerobic activity organised by the PPKI teachers. All the students from Year 1 to Year 5 participated in the activity, while the Year 6 students stayed in the school hall for a separate program. After 9am, everything returned to normal, and I had a few classes to teach as well. We went back home at 2pm and bought some doughnuts for lunch. That...

Week 10 of Practicum !!

 DAY 47 (Monday, 11th November 2024) As for Day 47, I started my day as usual at school with the official school assembly. I took a picture of the students from the back while our headmaster was giving a speech. The students looked very focused as they listened to him.  After the assembly, I took the opportunity to visit an animal showcase organised by the PPKI teachers. There were plenty of animals and one that caught my attention was a beautiful bird, it looked absolutely stunning. After strolling around to see the animals, I went to the pre-school class to relieve a teacher. I gave the students some worksheets and they completed them perfectly. And that’s all for the start of Week 10! DAY 48 (Tuesday, 12th November 2024) As for Day 48, the highlight of the day was making coupons for Entrepreneurship Day. Everything felt rushed because we had to manage our usual classes while working on the coupons. We needed to prepare 1,000 sets of coupons and finish them by the end of the...

Week 9 of Practicum !!

 DAY 41 (Monday, 4th November 2024 As for Day 41, it was the beginning of Week 9 after having a few days’ break from school. The day went as usual, but the highlight was the launching ceremony of STEM Week that morning during the school assembly. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The gimmick for the launching ceremony was a flying hot-air balloon with the words  "Pelancaran Minggu STEM" written on it. All the kids were amazed as they watched the balloon take off. After that, classes went on as usual, and that’s it for today. DAY 42 (Tuesday, 5th November 2024) As for Day 42, I started my day by enjoying a beautiful sunrise view from my house. I went to school a bit late that day, so I was able to watch the sunrise there. At school, the day went as usual, and nothing much happened. It was kind of a boring day compared to the others, so I don’t have much to say. However, I did take a selfie for an outfit check, and that’s it for my second day of...
