Week 9 Reflective Journal: - 17th - 21st July 2023

 It was the beginning of the week after the Independence holiday, and students were fresh and eager to learn. They engaged effectively throughout the lesson and did their tasks wholeheartedly. They did this only on the first and second day. Then, the rest of the day they began misbehaving. 

As an effective teacher, I would try to capture the attention of students in learning as well as their curiosity in learning. Therefore, I would apply or integrate the lesson with educational activities or games to make the lesson more fun and engaging.

This was also the revision week before the common assessment task 2 in the following week. So, I prepared their revision and made it a game. For instance, I write the questions on the board and allow 2 volunteers to answer the questions. The one who finished their answer first and it was correct, then it was the winner. I also let the other 2 volunteers stand in the middle or at the back facing backward. Then, I write the question on the board and after finishing writing the question. The one who finishes his/her answer correctly will be the winner. 

Overall, I found out that students were engaged in the lesson or revision activity which is a game, and learnt a lot from the game or activity. Those who got bored from the normal lesson seemed interested in the lesson or activity integrated with educational games. So, I confirmed that the majority of students were prepared well before the CAT 2 and would gain good or pass marks.
