📖 Second Week Stories: Teaching, Learning & Exploring

Day 6: A Day Dedicated to the Moon

Today marked the sixth day of our teaching practice. As always, we arrived at school by 9:00 AM and signed the register. A special assembly was held in observance of National Moon Day. The program began with the usual prayer, pledge, and national anthem. Students of Class 10 led the assembly, including news reading and a speech about the significance of Moon Day, which was both informative and engaging. A student also sang a Moon-themed song, adding a creative touch to the event.

To celebrate the day further, a quiz competition on Moon Day was conducted. The preliminary round took place in each class, selecting two representatives per class. The final quiz round was conducted during the third period. In the fifth period (1:00 PM), a drawing competition on the theme “à´¨ിà´²ാà´µുà´³്à´³ à´°ാà´¤്à´°ി” (A Moonlit Night) was organized in the science laboratory. Students from both high school and upper primary participated enthusiastically. The winners were later announced by the headmaster.
I had a substitution class in 8B during the 4th period, where I taught the topic "Compound" from the unit Elements and Compounds. As per our routine, we assisted with the noon meal serving at 12:15 PM. The school day ended at 3:45 PM with the national anthem, after which we signed out and returned home.




Day 7: Teaching Chemistry and Physics

On the seventh day, we reached the school around 9:00 AM, attended the morning assembly, and signed the register. During the 4th period, I had a substitution class in 8B, where I handled the Chemistry topic "Origin of Symbols" from the unit Elements and Compounds. The students were curious and engaged, and I was happy with the response I received. At 12:15 PM, we continued with our noon meal duty, where egg was served as a special item that day. Later in the 8th period, I had a Physics class in 8D, where I taught the topic "Frictional Force" from the unit Motion and Force. The students actively participated in the discussion, and I concluded the session with key points and real-life examples. The day ended at 3:45 PM with the national anthem, followed by signing out.

                     



Day 8: Creating Awareness through Collage

The eighth day of our teaching practice started as usual with the morning assembly at 9:20 AM. I had no regular or substitution classes today, which gave me time to focus on our school-based activity. As part of EDU 11, we organized a collage competition on the topic "Empowerment of Girls" during the 4th period in class 8D. We had already received permission from the headmaster.
Before beginning the activity, we gave a short introduction about the topic, helping students understand the importance of women empowerment in society. We divided the class into seven groups and provided them with chart papers. The students participated with great enthusiasm and creativity. Their teamwork and awareness were visible through their presentations. After evaluating all the collages, we awarded Group 1 the first prize and Group 2 the second prize.This activity helped raise awareness among the students about the rights, roles, and power of girls in modern society. After the event, we carried out our noon meal duty. The school day concluded with the national anthem at 3:45 PM, and we signed the register before heading home.






Day 9: Recognition and Reinforcement

On the ninth day, we reached the school by 9:00 AM and attended the assembly at 9:20 AM. I had a substitution class in 9C during the 4th period, where I interacted with the students and made use of the time for general discussion and engagement. At 12:15 PM, we performed our usual noon meal duty. During the fifth period, we distributed the prizes to the winners of the collage competition held in 8D. The students were excited and appreciated the recognition. Following this, I had a Physics class in 8D where I taught the topic "Friction in Daily Life" from the unit Motion and Force. The class was interactive, and I connected the lesson to real-life examples, which helped students understand the concept better. The day ended with the national anthem at 3:45 PM, after which we signed out and returned home.
