The first activity i had after arrived in UNP is meet my Cooperating Proffesor and Cooperating Teacher. When I meet my cooperating teacher. My Cooperating teacher is Mam Mila Aquino Lopez. Mam Mila gave me my subject and class for my teaching in future. She give me English subject for grade three, and after we finish she said I have an observation tomorrow morning at grade 3. Unfortunately my first observation is reschedule because vigan have Signal 1. My first observation is next week at grade 3, I observed how Mam mila teaching and give the lesson to her students. Mam Mila reading a Story about Horse and Karabau. From my first observation I have new insight for my lesson plan. After she finish read a story she ask some students to answer some question about the story.
Total i have around 10 times to observe, I'm not just observe Mam Mila, but I observe the elementary major teaching in the class. I have 3 classes to observe, Grade 2, Grade 3, and Grade 5. From observed the elementary major i really really know how to be a teacher at grade 3. Its not just speak speak speak, but we should give the student activity. The activity should match with the subject we teach. So I learned a lot of activity to teach student. The example is we can ask the student to sing before we start our lesson, that can be our motivation or just recall last lesson. Next we can give the student an interesting activity for their fixing skill and evaluation.
One part i remember during observed elementary student major is the media she used. She used the power point but the font its too small, and too many word. Some student look like hard to read the power point, and the other walk to front of class just to read the word. After that I think, if I used power point, that shoul be easy to read for the students. The other media i remember its a box, she pass the box and play the music, if the music end students who bring the box should read the paper and answering the question. I thinks its a interactive activity so I adopt it for my final demo.
