Practicum Journey (SMKDK)

  Monday, 24th July 2023      It's Monday! So, I received information that the fellow practicum teachers were involved in KPM's "Penarafan Tandas bertaraf 5 Bintang." We had been assigned to assist the other teachers in rating the condition of the school's restroom. I was assigned to update the school maps, which included the names of all the restrooms. It was an amazing opportunity and a brand new lesson for me.      So, for 1 Bestari today, I focused on reading and writing skills, and I provided homework for students to rearrange sentences to form a short paragraph. While for 2 Fikrah, I gave each pupil a word search focusing on adverbs.        Good news for today, I have no relief classes 😊 The meeting for 'Penarafan Tandas bertaraf 5 Bintang'  🌟 Tuesday, 25th July 2023      It's Tuesday! So, as usual, it will be my day of relaxation, as well as the day when I try to finish my weekly lesson plans! Howev...

  Monday, 17th July 2023      It's Monday! So, I planned a fun project for my 1 Bestari students today. I asked them to write a music review from one of their favorite songs. I had also provided and distributed the template during the class. I explained how to write an appropriate review and allowed them to do some research about the music when they got home. The students were beaming to be able to write about their favorite music. For 2 Fikrah, I gave them past simple crosswords from 'Bulan Bahasa,' which was one of the competitions for Form 2. It was a wonderful activity for my students and taught them many types of activities.       Then, as is usual on Mondays, a formal assembly would be held, and for today's assembly, my school celebrated an early independence month. The assembly was great since it included patriotic songs including Malaysia's independence anthem. As my gift from the event, I also received a very adorable clip nail. It was a ...

  Monday, 10th July 2023      It's Monday again! So, for today, I performed some fun activities with my 1 Bestari children that emphasized listening skills. I introduced the students to the song 'Everything at Once by Lenka,' and I gave them a worksheet in which they had to complete the words of the song while listening to it. Furthermore, this song was utilized as the theme music for 'Bulan Bahasa,' and it was a brilliant song since it included a lot of idioms in the lyrics.       Despite that, my school had its usual formal assembly on Monday before the end of the school day. So, I was assigned to train certain students in reciting poems (Bulan Bahasa), which was a good chance because I'd always wanted people to recite my own poems. In that regard, I utilized my own poetry for my students to present at formal assembly.      Regarding my relief class, I am only required to relief 2 Gemilang/ 2 Harmoni from 1.45 p.m. to 2.20 p.m. My...
