Day 34 of My Teaching Practice  29.07.2024                                                                                                                             Monday  Today marked the 34th day of my teaching practice. I arrived at school by 8:45 a.m. and started with substitution duty in class 10B during the first period. For my allotted periods, which were the third and sixth, my mentor teacher was on leave, so I took over both periods. During these sessions, I revised the chapter new numbers and provided the students with extra questions. It was gratifying to see them tackle these questions independently, applying their understanding of the material.  A...

  Day 28 of My Teaching Practice 22.07.2024                                                                             Monday Today was the 28th day of my teaching practice. I reached the school at 8:45 a.m. The day was special as it was Pi Approximation Day. Upon arriving, my mentor, Karthika Ma'am, asked me to help prepare for a seminar scheduled at 1:15 p.m. by the school's math club. We created circles of different radii for the students to measure the circumference and divide it by the diameter, helping them discover the constant Pi. My allotted periods were during the 3rd and 6th periods. During the 3rd period, I conducted an achievement test on the chapter "Multiplication Identities." At 1:15 p.m., I helped Karthika Ma'am with the Pi Approximation Day activities, assisting students ...

 Day 26 of My Teaching Practice 18.07.2024                                                                           Thursday Today, I arrived at school at 8:45 a.m. My allotted period was the second period in class 9G, where I conducted a problem-solving session on "Product of a Sum and Difference." The students remembered the identity but needed help translating word problems into equations. Once set up, they successfully applied the identity to solve the problems. The discussion on the second problem extended into the next period, so I continued in class 9G during the fourth period, addressing doubts and clarifying previous questions. I assisted with serving the noon meal and had substitution duty in class 9F during the sixth period. After the bell and national anthem at 3:15 p.m., I performe...

We found out there was an inauguration ceremony scheduled for the afternoon, featuring the Union Minister of State for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Suresh Gopi. During the second period, in class 9G, I conducted a problem-solving session on special operations from the chapter on multiplication identities. I guided the students through word problems, helping them identify and analyze patterns in the remainders and products of numbers. By the end of the session, they could construct mathematical proofs on their own. During the third period...

Day 14 of My Teaching Practice 1.07.2024                                                                        Monday Today was the 14th day of my teaching practice. I arrived at school at 8:45 a.m. My allotted periods were the second and sixth, but I only taught the second period because my supervising teacher needed the sixth period. In the second period, I conducted an activity on "Lengths and Numbers" from the unit "New Numbers" to show that some numbers cannot be expressed as fractions. I used examples like the diagonal of a square and the height of an equilateral triangle to illustrate irrational numbers. Initially, the students were confused, but I explained the number system to help them understand. By the end, they grasped that not all numbers can be expressed as fractions and could apply the Pythago...
