VIDEO LESSON 1


 

 ONLINE TEACHING PRACTICE 2020

In this week I took classes 6th, 7th and 8th standard students. The class was started at the 10.00am for 6th and 7th standard students. For 8th standard students the classes were started on 9.00 am. I entered the class room before the 15 minutes. students were ready with that science textbook and notebook. I took the attendance of the class. The students were very active and attentive in the class. I enquired them about the follow up activities.  I asked some questions related to the previous knowledge and some thought provoking questions. In the classes I used various Teaching learning aids such as video, power point, pictures, model, original specimen, etc.  I used different teaching aids and gave various activities for the students such as complete the following table. The students were very interested in doing the activities and they completed all of it within the time. I conclude the lesson by summarising the main points or presenting the video. At the end of each class I asked review questions and gave a follow up activity. I could manage the class very well. My classes were observed by teachers form Christ nagar school and teacher educators of Christ nagar college of education. They gave supporting comments and pointed the corrections needed. The online teaching practice was ended on 4 the December 2020. It was a great experience for me. I could more explore the various technological methods and I believed that it would be a stepping stone to be a good techno pedagogue
