WEEK 04 OF TEACHING PRACTICE

Date : 11/08/2025 - 16/08/2025

This week was eventful. We had our regular schedule with some substitution periods and attended our allotted classes. On Tuesday, our mentor teacher observed our class and provided valuable feedback to improve our teaching skills. The next day, Wednesday, was spent creating placards for the Independence Day rally. On Thursday, the school conducted its election, and I was assigned to oversee Class 8C, and we conducted the elections for the first and second leaders. The highlight of the week was August 15th, when we celebrated Independence Day with a flag-hoisting ceremony and a rally that promoted drug abuse awareness under the theme of freedom. We wrapped up the syllabus for the upcoming Onam exams on Saturday. Overall, it was a productive week.

The day featured an engaging session, "A Trigger to Mind's Eye," conducted by Vinod Santhipuram, India's leading mentalist, which left many students amazed by the power of mentalism.
