5. Teaching Practice

 

Prosedure of Teaching

    During I'm teaching at UIC Bajada Senior High School, specifically in Grade 11 with the Entrepreneurship subject, there were several procedures that I had to do in the classroom when the teaching and learning process started. First, the things to do after entering the classroom. I would ask all the students to stand up for prayer, and ask the class leader to lead the prayer. Once done, I will greet them and invite them to sit back down. After that I will ask for their attendance today. The next step to get students excited is to provide encouragement such as games, singing or dancing together.

        After that we will discuss the material but I will do a review by asking students about the learning in the previous meeting. Here we can make sure whether students still remember the previous material they have learned.

                                       

        In the next part, I start the lesson by providing motivation in the form of pictures or videos, and I ask some questions to make students guess the topic of the lesson and activate their knowledge of the topic. If the students have guessed today's lesson then I can continue by presenting the learning objectives and guiding questions to the students. The guiding questions will be asked at the end of the discussion, therefore students need to pay attention to the material. It is intended that students always remember the guiding questions during the discussion, because the guiding questions are the main points in the discussion.

        In the middle of the discussion, I will ask students if they have understood or not such as "Is it alright?" "Is it clear?" "Do you understand?" and I also ask students if they have any questions or clarifications such as "Are there any questions or clarifications so far?" I also always appreciate students' answers by saying "Very good! Thank you" or "Yes, you've got it!".

     Next is the activity. In this section I usually divide the students into 3 groups. Each group has instructions for their respective activities. At this stage students are given 15 minutes to discuss and work together in practicing the movements which will then be presented 3 minutes for each group by at least 2 people who represent the results of their discussion.

        After the collaborative activity is complete, I deliver integration in the form of questions. This part functions so that students can relate to their religion and environment when studying the material. Next, I give a quiz related to the material with multiple choice questions. This quiz must be done individually and uses 1/4 paper. After that, I ask students to summarize the material they have learned. At the end of the class, I give an assignment or they summarize the learning outcomes.

Finally, I ask students to stand up and pray, and I say my greetings.
