Week 6

 The sixth week of the school internship marked the resumption of internship activities after the third-semester examinations. The week focused mainly on re-engaging students in academic learning through interactive and ICT-supported teaching strategies.

On 7th January 2026, I handled a class for IX F during the 5th period on the topic “Factors Affecting Kinetic Energy.” The lesson was made engaging through the use of visuals related to potential and kinetic energy, which stimulated students’ thinking. Discourse techniques were effectively used to guide students in identifying and formulating the factors affecting kinetic energy, promoting active participation and conceptual understanding.

On 8th January 2026, I conducted a Chemistry class for VIII D on the topic “Solubility” from the unit Water. The lesson was ICT-based, with well-designed slides that captured students’ attention. Concept-based questions were provided through QR codes and digital links, offering students a novel and interactive learning experience. The use of technology enhanced curiosity and encouraged independent exploration.

The week involved limited co-curricular activities. A medical-related campaign was conducted in the school, during which worm tablets were distributed to students as part of a health and welfare initiative.

Overall, the sixth week helped in smoothly transitioning students back into academic learning after examinations and strengthened my skills in using ICT tools and interactive discourse methods in the classroom.

Week 9

 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...
