Back to College

 We are back to our classes after a short period of online classes.The day began with the class elections.We selected Aleena, Sajin and Josena as our class leaders. They proved to be the right choices from day one itself.

The next hour Giby ma'am taught about the three mental stages: Id, ego and super ego and I'm working my way into having only ego and super ego. She gave a hilarious anecdote to show the real life applications of these mental stages.

After lunch, we were energised by Joju sir's class where we were divided ourselves into eight groups where each group was a mixture of students from each class. We had group discussion on the topics 'Dangers of Technology' and the 'Uses of Technology for a Teacher'. Each group had a leader,reporter and time keeper.The reporter is supposed to present the points discussed by the group in the form of a 3 minute speech.

 


During our PT hour we had a warm up session followed by few games of Kho- Kho.

Tomorrow is our first group activity as a class in college and we are not fully prepared ....but no worries 😊.

Day 30 of Online Classes

 Today the day began with Joju sir's class and the physical science association continued with their seminar. We were introduced to the software 'Hot Potatoes', which can be used to make online quizzes. If I had known this earlier I would have used it for 'Mathletics'. The topic was handled by Ancy and Gayathri of Physical science association and they did a great job. Later we had Ancy ma'am's class where we discussed about social change. Ma'am made us switch on our cameras to take a group photo. It felt good too see many faces after a long time.

A New Phase

 This week marked the beginning of teaching practice. St Mary's, Pattom is the school assigned for me. It's going to be a great opportunity and experience for all of us.The internship was supposed to start on 5th January but it was delayed by a day due to an unexpected holiday.  6th Jan 2022, It was the first day of our internship and to be honest I was excited and nervous at the same time. I had the first hour at 9J1 which was utilised to show a video on 'Social Media and its Effects'. The video was shot and shown as a part of a government initiative to create awareness of the positive and negative effects of social media. I couldn't take a class, but I got to be the tech support for the teachers. This helped me get rid of that unnecessary stress. But I had another period at 9I1 and I used this period to get to know the students, their previous knowledge etc. and also brushed some of the previously taught topics. 7th Jan 2022, Today the second batch attended school...
