TEACHING ACTIVITY

    I only taught 2 afternoon classes in January 28, 2019. For motivation session, I did not give them a game, but I showed a video about gametogenesis to them. The goal of showing video to them was to give them a strong basic knowledge and friendly introduction about today’s topic. I found that the class enjoyed the video and they amazed on the fact that showed in the video.

    I used STAD (Student Team Achievement Division) as the model to taught the class. The class activity was filling the worksheet and working on the group. The students need to find how to solve the problem on worksheet from trusted sources in internet or book. The teacher guided the student to find out how to solve the problem. The group that has finished  the work can proceed to demonstrate the work in front of the class. This model will encourage student and give them support, motivation and also increasing student self-esteem, corporation in the group and critical thinking skill.

Interactive learning and teaching during classroom discussion.

    In the last, I gave them the short evaluation. They need to decide the 10 sentences  as true or false sentence based on what they learned from today’s discussion.

Overall, the performance of the Grade 8 Granada and Grade 8 Guyabano meet my expectation.

RESULT AND IMPROVEMENT

    My CT really satisfied by my improvement in connecting the previous and today’s lesson and the way of explaining the student about the goal of discussion. Beside of these thing, she also mention that I was perfectly created the good atmosphere of learning in the class with a lot of good and interesting activity for the students to be more active and participate.

MISSCELANEOUS

·         I found that the video is the best way to visualize the abstract concepts beside of using picture
