TEACHING PLAN RELATED TO YOUR MAJOR
The most important thing before teaching is a lesson plan. My lesson plan is one of thing that I really prepared because it includes the objectives, activities, discussion, assessments and materials for my teaching. A lesson plan should be clear and systematic. During my first teachings, my cooperating teacher gave me her feedback. She noted the positive points and the things that I need to improve. For the things that I need to improve, she noted that I have to prepare an activity prior to the introduction of the material. Next, the students love to play games and some activities. Lastly, I have to be firm when it comes to classroom management.
Before my next class, I take note of those things a for better teaching and learning experience. I added games and activities in my lesson plan and material. Also, I made sure that the students were manage during discussion. I have to catch their attention and remind them to focus on the discussion and avoid making noises.
