Week 5
20th- 22nd Mar, 2017

It's the last week to present in Sama American Private School, I
taught two classes of this week which are one Science class and
repeated Science class with other section as new lesson. On
Sunday, I taught Science lesson which was "Safety First" and the
MCT and MST observed my teaching class and took notes as
feedback. It was a brilliant day for me because my lovely students
were interactive with the lesson and I taught them in the best way. I
did the daily routine with children which were welcomed students to
the class after their break, asked about the date of today and
solving the puzzle to get a new vocab shows a photo with asked
questions, translation during activities, using classroom rules and
the bell to manage children's behaviors, using reward system
divided my students in two teams as boys team and girls team,
provide lessons title, date, and objectives on white board clearly,
evaluate their group work as team with provided the feedback like
checking student's achievement by using my checklist assessment.
When I evaluated them, I used my notes to mark their coporaton,
understaning and working hard with group. As an assessment, I
used online fusion resorses that provides questions as multiple
choices, sort items in the box, watch video with asked questions and
solve online puzzle. This assessment help me to check students'
understanding of the purpose' lesson as whole class.

On Monday, I taught same lesson with grade 2 D that I taught it on

Sunday with grade 2 C which was safety first but actually I didn't
know that I have teach them because this section is not my class,
she surprised me in the class said " Reem, take this class and teach
them the same lesson you taught yesterday" Actually, I shocked
because I didn't bring my materials and activities to do it with
children. Ms. Kristina said "No problem try and show me how you
can teach them by following student' book without activities and
PowerPoint". I start teaching them with using online student's book
on smart board, asked them some questions to get the objectives of
the lesson and followed their book with sum up skills. Really, it was
great experience to teach them without knowing that I have teach
today and using activities however most of children were very
excited and encouraged with the lesson.
In the last day, which was on Wednesday 22nd Mar 2017, I prepared
gifts for my MST and my students which was plants for each student
with a nice certificate that I designed for each child (super girls for
who got full marks and good girls for who tried to improve their
works in the class). I asked them how we can care our plant and
they answered to me I asked them to connected to the science life
as science teacher. My lovely students were very happy about the
gifts and the certificate includes their achievements. The PD
Coordinator gaves me the certificate for my achievements as report
in the school.
