Extremely Busy Day

Hi everyone I had extremely busy day of the TP because there was lots of things that I had to take care of with my MST and the rest of the staff. Therefore I couldn’t even have a break for lunch.



I had a good performance today basically first thing first I showed and explained my plan to my MST, then I did organize all the activities after the input session which was about the sound, honestly children this time were focused and they all loved the magical bottles sound that I tested in front of them by blowing in each bottles.  According to my MST s feedback she told me in terms of the management there is a huge improvement which really made me glad.
Moreover, I did reading with 6 children who are mixed abilities, during one to one reading session I realized how much effort it could take to teach each child reading. furthermore,

I did praised children’s good behaviors for being good listener and preforming as my instructions befor implementing the activities with me see below
This is the sound lotto game were children listen to different animals sound quickly and make circles when they finished they need to write simple sentence 

praising children positive work and valuing their effort
Making sound mobiles with see shells
later on the teachers asked the children to hang it in their class room
Also I did participated in the show and tell session were children have the chance to bring an object from the home and speak it in front of their class room friend, while others have the chance to ask questions related to that object.

This is one of my physical related activity which called sound walk children in this particular activity should walk around the school and find human sound and the environment and then they need to draw and write some simple sentence see example above. 


 
Regarding the TP competencies,  finally I managed to build a good relationship with my MST and the parents. Moreover, this time I succeeded in controlling children’s negative behavior on the carpet. However still I think I need to focus on rotating the activities in the class room, so my next week target is to improve the quality of the rotation, my MST  told me that she is unorganized person and I am well organized and well-structured person and she want to gain some of my quality therefore she agreed to worked with me in a team teaching which I think I can learn so much interesting things from her.
furrthermore, I worked extremely hard on my Communication skills such as interacting professionally and effectively with teachers and parents, using appropriate body language, eye contact, gestures and voice to maintain an effective classroom presence.


Teacher should act and behave professionally and the most important thing is to give other people chance to listen others point of view and think about how to make changes in their life, no mater how perfect they pretend to be. As a matter of fact we all are different and I strongly believe that each one is especial and have unique quality ,the best thing is to work collaboratively to achieve the best and influence other were we inspire them to learn help in the process of the community.  so best of luck to all of you girl and try to work and enjoy every moment of the final TP. Remember keep smiling no mater how desperate you are and keep thinking positively good luck(>-~)

  1. Hi Khadija, it seems like you had another very interesting and positive day! I enjoyed your lesson, especially the magic bottles and it is clear that your relationship with your MST and the children is blossoming! I like the way you are always so enthusiastic with the children, it's a great way to attract and maintain their attention but you need to work on using your own 'quiet voice' a little more. When you did this it was very effective and got their attention. Similarly you need to take care with language we'll talk about eaxtly what 3/4 full means when I see you on Sunday:) You activities were fun but you need to now see if you can find time to quickly check that everything is going well and as you said yourself you need to work on managing transitions more effectively. I liked your explicit reference to your own progress in the TP competences which clearly demonstartes your ability to critically reflect! :)

  2. Well done khadija I liked the activities you implemented, and am happy that you are developing in managing children’s behavior. I believe we have the same problem in transitions, but this will improve though time and experience.
