Second week reflection ( 04/08/2025 - 08/08/2025)

My second week at St. Augustine High School, Mararikulam, was both engaging and meaningful. I continued handling English classes in Standard IX, teaching portions of the lesson The Toilet from the unit Winds of Change. The students responded well to my questions, though I had to manage occasional disturbances during class. A highlight of the week was the special assembly on Hiroshima Day, where students presented speeches, poems, and performances to remind us of the tragic consequences of war and the value of peace. The program was touching and gave me a chance to reflect on the importance of compassion, non-violence, and unity. Overall, this week strengthened my confidence as a teacher and deepened my understanding of how school activities and lessons together shape students’ values and learning.

Week 8 Reflection During this week, I continued my classes in Standard 8 with the lesson Talking of Science and in Standard 9 with the poem Sea Fever. Along with the regular lessons, we also conducted a science quiz, which engaged the students actively and helped them develop more interest in the subject. This being my final week of training, it was a special one. On Friday, at the end of the day, we shared sweets with the children and offered snacks to the teachers and staff as a small token of gratitude. It was a memorable conclusion to my teaching practice, filled with warmth and appreciation.

2nd Phase Week 1 ( 10/11/2025-14/11/2025)

Week 1 Reflection – Second Phase Teaching Practice Our second phase of teaching practice began at St. Augustine H.S., Mararikulam, and the week unfolded with a mix of excitement and unexpected changes. On the very first day, we were assigned to handle classes 8 A, 8 B, and 8 C, and we looked forward to beginning our lessons with renewed enthusiasm. However, the schedule did not progress as planned. The students of Class 10 had a three-day tour, which led to disruptions in the timetable, and as a result, the 8th and 9th standard classes had no regular periods for most of the week. Despite these challenges, the school atmosphere remained lively. Friday was celebrated as Children’s Day, and the campus was filled with joy and colour. Various programmes were organised for the students, bringing smiles to their faces and creating a cheerful end to an otherwise irregular week. Although teaching sessions were limited, the first week provided valuable experiences and helped us ease back into ou...
