Scrap book
A scrap book was made based on the topic of affixes which was taken as a class for 9 D of GMVHSS, Kalanjoor. The book includes the definition of prefixes and suffixes, meanings of some of the prefixes and suffixes with examples, examples of words with both prefix and suffix in it and a prefix board game.

Week 7 (22/07/24- 24/07/24)
During this week of teaching practice, I engaged with class 9 D across three significant days. On the 29th day, I began exploring the chapter "Success" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, focusing on themes of perseverance and ambition. While I successfully used visual aids to enhance comprehension, I noted the need for more interactive strategies to maintain student engagement throughout the session. The following day, I continued with the same class, further delving into the theme of success through interactive discussions and personal reflections, fostering a more inclusive classroom atmosphere. This informal interaction proved invaluable in building rapport and encouraging students to actively participate. On the last day of my teaching practice, I divided my time between teaching about affixes in one period and participating in a heartfelt thanksgiving session in another. The affixes lesson highlighted the importance of differentiated instruction, while the informal session underscored the significance of building relationships and fostering a supportive learning environment. Additionally, participating in an evening meeting with teachers provided an opportunity for reflection and gratitude, emphasizing the collaborative efforts and support within the school community. Moving forward, I am committed to refining my instructional strategies and continuing to foster a positive impact on students' educational journeys.
Week 6 (15/07/24- 19/07/24)
We are approaching the final stretch of our teaching practice phase II, this past week from 15/07/24 to 19/07/24 has been both engaging and fulfilling. I delved into the chapter 'The Toilet' with my students, emphasizing the themes of social discrimination and racism through interactive sessions. In line with my project goals, I introduced mindfulness activities aimed at boosting self-confidence among the students, fostering a positive classroom atmosphere. Additionally, I conducted an achievement test to assess their understanding and progress. Ensuring the overall well-being of students and teachers, there was a medical check-up session, prioritizing their health alongside their academic development. These experiences have been transformative, reinforcing my commitment to holistic education and equipping me with invaluable insights as I prepare to conclude this phase of my journey as a B.Ed trainee.
Week 5 - (08/07/24 - 12/07/24)
This week has been another fulfilling and enriching experience in my journey as a student teacher. Engaging actively in my classes every day has allowed me to deepen my connection with the students and refine my teaching strategies further. A notable event this week was the program conducted by the Ashraya team as part of the anti-drug campaign. This initiative provided a valuable opportunity to address important societal issues with my students in a meaningful way. In addition to regular class activities, I also conducted a pre-test for the project that I am developing as part of the B.Ed curriculum
Week 4 (01/07/24 - 05/04/24)
This week marked a significant step forward in my journey as a student teacher. It was both engaging and productive, filled with diverse experiences that contributed to my growth and learning. Throughout the week, I actively engaged my students with various chapters every day. This hands-on approach allowed me to gauge their understanding, adapt my teaching methods, and foster meaningful discussions in the classroom. One of the highlights of this week was conducting a diagnostic test for my class. This assessment provided valuable insights into the strengths and areas needing improvement for each student. However, the week also brought a new challenge: our college supervisor visited to observe our class. While initially nerve-wracking, this experience turned out to be a valuable opportunity for feedback and professional development. The feedback received will undoubtedly help me refine my teaching strategies and enhance my classroom management skills moving forward.
