PHASE 2 - DAY 32

-
On 27-07-2024, Saturday, the school had a normal working day with Tuesday's timetable During the second hour, I was able to engage IXC students. There were only 8 students out of 32. So I decided to engage the learners in a Language game. Since the vocabulary of the learners were very weak, the teacher divided them into two grays, and asked one group to guess the word and the other group had to give numerous hints to find the word. this game made the teacher baffled as I realised that almost 7 out of 8 studenta were not even able to recognise the words from the earlier chapter. But I realised they were able to recall a somewhat correct meaning of the words taken as 'Word of the Day which made the teacher happy and satisfied.

PHASE 2 - DAY 4

On 15/06/2024, Saturday, the school had a regular working day till 12 in the noon with Tuesday's timetable.  In the 2nd hour, I engaged 9C. I was able to discuss the next 3 stanzas of the poem "Nothing Twice" with the students. The teacher was doubtful as to whether the students were able to grasp the philosophical ideas articulated in the poem. Since the main objective of teaching poetry is to appreciate the poem, this always limited the teacher's role to an extend.  In this class, to the surprise of the teacher Sabaina answered a question and the teacher gave enough appreciation. To improve their vocabulary the teacher decided to select one new word from the textbook as the 'Word of the Day' and the learners found it quiet interesting. Peachu selected the word 'bliss' as the word of the Day. The session went good and interesting after this. After familiarising the learners with the meaning and the example sentence, the learners were asked to create n
