Day 7 of Online classes

 The first hour of the day was taken by Ancy ma'am. She taught about Rabindranath Tagore and  his philosophical views. Towards the end of the class ma'am made us switch on the video so that she could see us one by one. When it was my turn to switch it on, the others sang the birthday song for me 😊.

Later we had physical education class after a long gap. Sir, took the class for 10 minutes and left us free 💃. Then we had Joju sir's class where Gayathri and Mahima did an excellent presentation on 'Child Abuse over the Internet'. They did covered every nook and corner of the topic.

Prime Numbers in Nature

 Prime numbers are one of the easiest concepts to understand and learn in Maths. But some of the complex problems in Maths belong to this branch. Never would have imagined an application of prime numbers in nature. Thanks to the book 'Weird Maths: At The Edge of Infinity and Beyond' which introduced me to this along with other weird applications of Maths. There's a particular species type of cicadas found in the US called the Magicicada or the 'periodical cicadas' who stay in their larva for 13 or 17 years. Imagine staying inside for over a decade with no connection to the outside world and coming out in the year 2021. People wearing masks walking all around you, smartphones, oh, the shock!🤯 It is the primality of these numbers which interest the mathematicians. The reasons are quite interesting. As the lifecycle of the prey changes, the population cycle (pattern in the population for a period of time) of their predators also vary due to the change in the availabil...

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...

Week 4@ St Goretti's HSS

1st August 2022  We are back to St. Gorett's for week 4 of INTENSE TEACHING PRACTICE. Today Benedict sir and Joju visited us. Joju sir observed some of our classes while benedict sir checked our records and gave us necessary corrections. Those who were free guided Joju sir to the classes that were to be observed. Later, Joju sir shared some of the common mistakes we tend to make while teaching.     4th August 2022  We had an unexpected holiday for 2 days due to heavy rains. These holidays will further delay the portion completion. We were asked to complete all our Lesson Plans by 15th August, which seems to be farfetched with these unanticipated breaks. Today Deepthi ma'am had come for observation. As usual, I had classes at 9C and 8D. 5th August 2022 We made plans to conduct extra classes for students of 8B,8C,8D,9B,9C and 9D on Saturday to complete the portions. Also, I utilized my free period to observe Sr Jeena's class at 8D. I've previously observed Sr Jeena's...
