1. Classroom environment / organisational skills

Christine had organised the seating and layout in accordance with her learning plan,

Pencils, pens, paper were provided as well as a work book containing the slides for key point to be noted on. Handouts and quizzes were also included

Each of the students completed a pre-course application form and interview that helped identify their oral & written English competency. This course was not available in other languages at this time.

2. Classroom Management

Christine had a confident but relaxed classroom manor and greeted each student as they entered the training room. Also, at times when certain learners got a little loud or chatty, Christine remained calm and showed patience but applied control, verbally and through body language. The atmosphere in the room was nice, the temperature was just right, so this will have maintained a comfortable environment for the learners.

There was a definite sense of anticipation from the students and only silence could be heard from around the table. Christine started by introducing herself and laying out some of the ground rules before commencing with an icebreaker, student introduction of themselves.

Handouts and work sheets were given to the students, and Christine supported the learners on a 1:1 basis. I was a little disappointed with one of the handouts as it contained very little information for the learners to refer to, it was also in relation to a key objective. It was good to see that the PowerPoint presentation was not used excessively and only as reference to each module, Christine used discussion, questioning and observation techniques to put across the learning points and extract views and ideas from the

    Ms. Nelson began the class by explaining to the class what was going to happen in the class that day which showed language clarity. Then after that she went on to give the class positive feedback on how they have been doing. After that she had the students to partner up and she displayed another good teaching characteristic; equitable distribution, she shows this by calling on both boys and girls. She gave very precise instructions and also gave a wait time of two minutes between each answer. She also gave transitional signals by putting a time limit on the questions.…

    Mrs. Minor-Walker gained their attention by letting them know that she is happy to see them this morning and hoping that they enjoy the lesson plan that she has ready for them. At this very moment, I observed the body language of all the students and wrote down the actions that stood out to me the most. During the lesson plan lecture, I noticed some students who were passing notes to others, tapping their foot on the ground to indicate that they were bored, some who put their head down to influence sleeping etc. Then, there were the students who sat upright and looked interested in the lesson, ones who raised their hands to ask questions indicating that they want to understand the lesson plan. It…

    Ms. Brown managed her class very well as the students knew what to do when they walked into the room. There was minimal redirection by her, the students knew what to do at the appropriate times, and were on task with the given assignments. Some students participated more verbally, but all of them were working on the assignment. When problems arose during the lesson, she redirected them verbally and nonverbally.…

    Teacher Reflection

    • 2 Pages

    First and foremost, schools should be learning communities where teacher improvement comes from a plethora of sources. Generally speaking, teachers often focus on the content, materials needed, and the activities necessary for the lesson. As I walked in Ms. Franklin’s classroom I was greeted by the classroom Ambassador. Observing Ms. Franklin’s class she had everything mapped out on her board. Her board consisted of the agenda, a time frame of the agenda that needed to be completed in that particular class period, notes, classwork, homework, and an objective. She continually circulated the room as she was teaching. When students were seemingly off task, she used proximity to keep students on task. The students who understood the assignment were to make sure others in their group understood what they were doing as well. Ms. Franklin addressed a group and individual students who were off task. When students were taking notes, she circulated the room to make sure they were taking notes accurately. For the group activity, she assigned roles for the students. She also had material managers’ report to her to get supplies. She met with the time keepers to instruct them as to when the groups should be finished with their assignment. Ms. Franklin could have considered making the assignment more rigorous for the students. It was a great idea to have students work together on completing the function rule and displaying on a piece of chart paper. Perhaps providing a question that will push their thinking slightly further would lend to conversations that you will want to have in a group. She could also consider that once students get into their groups, allow a least a minute for them to decide on their groups roles and write names on their sheets. Overall Ms. Franklin has meet any standard that I expected of her. It was a pleasure of sitting and observing her classroom skills and teaching skills. I would definitely use her as a guidance of teaching…

    The energy and passion Helen possessed when teaching was unbelievable. With more and more days she spent with us, I noticed a distinctive quality of hers that truly amazed me. No matter what the weather was like and how she was feeling, she was always in high spirits when she entered the classroom, as if she was ecstatic to see us. Besides, she encouraged us to interact with her; therefore, the class was by no means serious and tense, but very enjoyable and inspiring.…
