second phase of teaching practice reflection

 The second phase of teaching practice has been started on 04/02/2021. As per the university guidelines, it is mandatory that we should take thirty classes. Due to the covid pandemic situation, the classes are taken in google meet. behalf of that, I'm doing my teaching practice in St. Stephens H.S.S., Pathanapuram, and I'm taking English classes for 9th standard students. Altogether, 15 classes has been taken so far. It is really a good experience taking classes through online platforms, and that too utilizing almost all the technological aspects for a beneficial teaching - learning process. for the first two to three days, it was really a herculean task to manage the learners as well as to elicit responses from them, but as the days proceeding, things are becoming easier and comfortable. power point slides, pictures, video, quizizz and models are the most commonly used teaching-learning resources. Thirty minutes is the duration of all the classes and the timing is from 8.00 pm to 8.30 pm. informal interaction, entry activity, model reading/recitation, link talk,  megaphoning of the doubts, glossary session,scaffolding questions and review questions, activities are the classroom interaction procedures used commonly for all the 15 classes and all were managed effectively and follow up activities were also given on all the days. Each day I made learners to present their follow up activity too. I also ensured the active participation of all the learners and considered them equally. unit 4 was handled and three chapters were completed and textual questions and activities were also discussed. The details of the 15 classes that has been taken in school are as follows:
