REFLECTION #2 August WEEK 25-29

I’m reporting this document to say, I made it through the second week…Alive! It was an absolute rough week for me since a lot of unexpected things happened. This week I had to give in my first assignment as a practice teacher, my nucleus study. It was a little tough because I needed to know my surroundings, the faculty, and all the other workers in one week. I haven’t met the entire school yet, but at least I became acquainted with many of the personnel and got to know the school I work in more. On Thursday, Gina let me go in front of the class and I did basically what she did in the class before. I read the story with them out loud, well actually I read first and then they repeated. This activity went good but the next one which was underlining the vocabulary words in the story did not. Getting all of their attention is really hard. Talking to them made me see I have a group that is not proficient in English. There were others who seemed like they didn’t care about anything and a few tried. On Friday 29, me and my practice teaching peers received a surprise visit by the Practice Teaching Supervisor Dr. Nilsa. I was a little nervous but then felt more at ease because I was reminded it was just an exploratory visit. My ease left again when I didn’t have my reflection printed out and in my professional notebook, but then again, thankfully I wasn’t being evaluated… yet. For next time, I need to have everything more organized and every job required in it so I can be more at peace.
