Last time teaching at english club and also class P.1/1 😦

Todays topic is things in the bedroom. Ms. Christine using flashcards and students fill the worksheet that given by teacher. Me and students play jump in jump out for the games. After we finish games, they have to finish their yesterday’s worksheet because some student not yet finish it.

Last week, Teacher Yakumi and Teacher Yew informed us about our evaluation date, so we have time to prepare our lesson plan and media for teaching in class. I talk with my teacher mentor about the topic. My topic for today is vehicle. I have prepared some flashcards and worksheet for today.

Before the evaluation day,
I sent my lesson plan to my VRU mentor, and she said that I have to prepare circle activity or circle time and art avtivity or free play activity. So I have a discuss with my lecturer in Indonesia, Miss Finita about my media. She recomended me to using Quiver as my media and for childrens worksheets for the art activity. I start to looking for the coloring pages that suits with the topic for today at Quiver’s website.

I’m a little bit nervous for today, because this is my first time teaching at class K.2/1. Also it’s hard for me to communicate with my VRU mentor because my phone is still at Ajahn Neung. I met my VRU mentor, Mrs. Sasihthorn in the morning at about 8.30 AM in front of School Dome. She give me this snack when we met, thank you so much Mrs. Sasithorn ^_^

The class is started. Before I handled the class, the students is already do the warm up with Teacher Brina while we waiting for Mrs. Nantiya because she is lost near Samkhok, so I don’t have much time to do warm up again. For opening the class we just sing the weather song and have a talk about how was the weather for the circle time.

After circle time, I’m using my flashcard for the presentation. This is my flashcards that I made for today:

We fill the activities in the books Surroundings Around Us pages 18-19, students fill this activity together by my instruction.

After they finish the books activities, we start to coloring Quiver’s coloring pages. The students is currious and interest to color the pages because I demonstrate the final project before they start to color. The coloring pages will be a 3D object augmented reality by using Quiver Apps, so I tell them to color beautiful. This is some of the students work:

I’m happy for today because both students and my VRU mentor seems interested to my teaching methodes and media. Thank you Miss. Finita for recomended Quiver to me and also Teacher Christine that always help me preparing my lesson plan. This is my evaluation form from my VRU mentor and Teacher Chris as my teacher mentor:

My topic for today english club is emotions. I’m using flashcards from @Mockeri, there is so many flashcards and printable materials for kids you can download for free

After I finish my presentation, we make 2 team, team A and team B.
One by one students from each team will come forward the class and looking at the whiteboard. While they looking back to the whiteboard, I will show the emotion cards to the other students. After they know what’s the emotion in the card I show to them, they will act the emotions. For example, I give them the sad card, so they will make a sad face and the students in front of the class will guess what emotions is that.

Todays topic is Professions.

Today Teacher Brina is come to class to see me teaching the class and if just in case I need her help. We start the class by sing and dance, and sing a song together The Itsy Bitsy Spider because they really like that song. After that I explaining about the professions with flashcards.

Children do exercise in the books People and Places Around Us. Not all of the students can understand the task, so I have to tell them the steps and work it together. After they finish their work, we recalling what does we learn today. I’m asking them about todays topic and for the closing we sing again The Itsy Bitsy Spider.

Ms. Brina is going to VRU English Camp, so I have to teach at her class:

K.2/4 from 09.00 AM – 09.50 AM
K.2/2 from 10.00 AM – 10.50 AM
K2/3 from 13.15 PM – 14.15 PM

Plese check my lesson plan for todays teaching here
Todays topic is parts of house, teacher brina told me that I can just use the books for students activity, so after I explain the topics with my flashcards, they do the activity in the book series People and Places Around Us.

After the class at Anuban done, I have to teach at English Club P.1/1, teacher chris told me that I have to try teach at the english club before I’m evaluated by thai teacher. So my topic for todays club is animals. We play pass the message and the students was enjoyed the games 😀

This is the games. We make 2 teams as always, because students at class P.1/1 likes games with teamworks. They make 2 lines, Team A and Team B. I will whispering to one student, and they will pass the message that I tell to them. The last students will come and take the flashcard. Example: I whisper “Dog and Cat”, so the last student have to take thhe dog flashcard and the cat flashcard.
