Week 3(

 The third week of my internship was both academically engaging and enriching, offering opportunities to apply different teaching strategies and participate in co-curricular activities.

On 10th November 2025, I handled a class for VIII D on Reaction of Metal Oxides with Water. The lesson was introduced through prior knowledge, followed by an experiment and a short video on soda water making to relate the concept to real-life situations.

On 11th November 2025, during the 6th period, I taught VIII D on Formation of Acids from Non-Metals. A video-based introduction was followed by element card activities and a table completion task. The class was concluded using the Think–Share technique to reinforce learning.

On 12th November 2025, I took a class for IX F on Hydrometer. Previous knowledge was checked using earlier experiments, and the concept was explained using simple illustrations related to buoyancy and density.

On 13th November 2025, I handled VIII D on Bases using the Concept Attainment Model, where positive and negative examples helped students identify and understand the characteristics of bases clearly.

The week also included co-curricular activities such as a Judo wrestling competition, Vidyarangam activities, and a medical camp focused on students’ health. The internship week concluded with the Children’s Day celebration on 14th November 2025, marked by a special assembly and various programmes.

Overall, the week enhanced my teaching skills, classroom interaction, and understanding of holistic school activities.

Week 9

Image
 During this week, I had the opportunity to handle Class 9F for the introduction of the chapter Sound and its continuation. On 27th January 2026, the chapter was introduced for the first time using the 5E instructional model. Since this model emphasizes active student engagement and inquiry-based learning, the class initially felt challenging to manage. However, as the lesson progressed, the topic itself captured the students’ interest. The use of varied learning experiences related to sound helped in sustaining their attention. The effective use of sound-based stimuli created curiosity among students and motivated them to participate actively, leading to better classroom interaction and engagement. On 29th January 2026, which was the last working day of School Internship Phase 2, I took the sixth period for Class 9F on the topic Propagation of Sound. The lesson began with a game-based activity where students classified sounds into artificial and natural sounds, which created an en...

Teaching practice (week 2) 21/07/2025 - 26/07/2025

Image
 The second week of my teaching practice turned out to be an enriching experience with both classroom sessions and co-curricular activities adding variety to the week.                     On 21st July, I handled a class for 8D during the 7th period. The topic was “Elements”, and I tried to make the session more engaging through different activities. For the introduction, I performed a simple experiment followed by an activity that caught the attention of the students. I introduced the concept of atoms and built the foundation for the topic. For the closure activity, I gave the students a word rearrangement task, where they had to form the definition of elements. This helped to reinforce the learning in an interactive manner.On 26th July, I got another class for 8D during the 8th period. The topic was “Compounds”, which I presented using the Concept Attainment Model. I began the session with positive and negative examples, which...
