“I came, I saw, I conquered”

WEEK NO. 13
November 03-07, 2014
“I came, I saw, I conquered”


My Accomplishment 

            I consider preparing my instructional material which is a PowerPoint presentation as my accomplishment for this week.  It is also an opportunity for me to share my skills in making the PowerPoint presentation useful for learning essay, poems, and spelling.
Moreover, I was observed my critique teacher in the laboratory high school. It was a challenged for me to handle the 1 section of 2nd years since I handle 4th years in the public school and I need to adjust .i was quite shocked about the behaviors of students in the private school though I am aware of it. It was very challenging in my part to think on effective strategies as well as activities that I need to prepare which will be very effective to the level of my diverse type of learners. But fortunately I noticed that most of my students are active when I used different strategies to motivate them participate during my discussion one of that material is using a die to call for students who will answer.

My Significant Experience

            My significant experience for this week was to be able to observe my students in the laboratory high school as well as to be observed by my critique teacher. At some point, this week gave me a lot of realizations since this week were full of requirements that need to be done. Moreover, I am very excited to teach 2nd year students in the private school and that expectation s turned into reality the moment I had my first rated demonstration with my critiques teacher.

My Insights 

            This week gave me a lot of realizations. I came from a private school before but I was quite nervous what would be the life waiting for me in the laboratory high school. Most of them are listening and mindful about the next thing that I will do. I realized that I really need to do advance reading before entering the classroom and a lot of reference to be studied. I gave the title I CAME I SAW AND I CONQUERED as my title for this week since I realized that this will be the weeks and months of staying in private school and I really need to deliver my lessons in such a way that my students will not be bored and will enjoy every hour of their life being with me playing the role of a student teacher.

My Problem

The problem that I encountered this week is classroom management. I was quite difficult for me to manage their noise since it was my first time to enter their class but I will think of the best strategy which will be very effective to them.

My Solution 

            I asked for some strategies that my critique teacher used all the time and I will try to imitate and integrate it in my class in a unique way.

Goals for next week

I will immediately approach my critique teacher and ask for a lesson to teach. Since, I know that I do not have enough time given to be able to finish 10 lesson plans with execution so I need to teach every other day. I still need to teach 9 lessons to be rated by my critique teacher.
