The last day in the first week (3rd/ 10)


Today was the last day in the first week and I did literacy lesson with creative activity. The preparation of the lesson was good and the students were more interesting and more active to the lesson than the last lesson. Every time before I start the lesson I revise with the children our classroom rules and I tried today to let them say the rules in English and some of them did. I was so happy and my teacher told me that I'm going on the write truck of teaching the children. In this lesson my activity was different than any activity that the children done before. The students enjoyed doing the activity and my MST like it maybe because they are using lots of worksheets activity and the activity that I did with them today was unusual for them. At the end when the children went their houses I arranged the classroom with my MST and we tried to make it wider so the children will have space to move. I had printed some labels for the resources that they have so they can see some words in Arabic and in English. Moreover, I had organized the stories and classify them on the reading area. The final thing that I did was sticking the children work that they did with me on the displays to let them see their work. When I finished I was exhausted however, I felt that it's really my classroom and I was happy to make it better and nice for the kids.   
                                               This is the model that I did for the children

This is the activity that I did with the children however I prepared everything and they just stick everything together. Also what I did to make the activity more enjoyable is I used white paper instead of color paper so they was busy coloring it first then they stick everything.

  1. Good job Fatima,

    I think you will be a good teacher in the future from what you just told us that you did in the classroom for the children.

  2. I liked the activity and the model is really nice.the most important thing is that the children enjoyed it and your MST gave you positive feedback.

  3. Thanks for all your writing, Fatima - try to use the reflective cycle to write about your lessons, I think the structure it provides will help you think and consider more the students' learning. For example, I'm not exactly sure what you did with the cut out snake.
