1. Visit TP School to meet the Principal and Science
coordinator/Teacher.
2.

3. Objectives:
4. Student teachers visit TP schools and meet the Principal and Science
coordinator/teacher and other relevant personnel. Student teachers will:
5.
Present an overview of Teaching Practice Tasks for this Practicum
stressing the fact that EPR student teachers will:

Focus on teaching science

attend the setting in accordance with the HCT, RAKWC schedule (Table 1
above) i.e. ideally for one day per week for five consecutive weeks (though
this may vary) and then for 5 days over the course of three weeks.

work with the Science coordinator/teacher to complete prescribed


observation and interview tasks and act as a TA as appropriate.
teach a minimum of 10 whole class lessons including four connected
lessons during the five week block
6.
Discuss guidelines for EPR MSTs as outlined above.
7.
Discuss issues of professionalism and of the importance of reflective
practice together with the need to maintain clear, explicit communication
between the MCT, MST and the student teacher in building relationships and
achieving the specific aims of the practicum.
8.
Discuss the need for the MST to allocate a specific amount of time for
discussing issues, areas of interest, co-constructing or advising on student
plans as appropriate.
9.
During this time the student teacher should also:

complete the School Profile (Table 3),

document important dates (holidays, school events, trips etc.) on the


School Calendar

obtain copies of the termly/weekly / daily class schedules for the


science coordinator/teacher

Document topics that are being covered currently and that will be
covered for the next 4 weeks.

Obtain or create a map highlighting place you will be in the school as


well as places where any specific labs, materials, resources, and or any
relevant outdoor learning spaces that could be used for your year group

Tour the school in order to complete the profile and to identify the location of
the Principals office, classrooms, Science room, relevant science
facilities/labs/prep-rooms, the outdoor play areas, dining areas, library,
resource room and any other areas that you may need to use. If possible
obtain/copy a map of the school.

Discussion Board Notes- Completed weekly

93.
94.Write your Discussion Board posts in paragraph form on BBLearn.
They should be a minimum of 100 words and where possible illustrated with
photographs. Answer the questions set in each Discussion and remember this
is a personal account of your thoughts, feelings and reactions during your
time in the school. Consequently, you may choose to focus not only on the
discussion points raised and/or use one, all or none of the following focus
points in your post.
95.
96.You can use this table to make notes / jot down ideas during TP. It would also
be helpful to consistently reflect on your professional development with
reference to the TP Competencies. Remember to also reply to two other
posts.
97.
98.
Table 4: TP Discussion Board Notes
99.
How did you feel about TP today/this week? What areas are you
focused on and what progress have you made? Explain.
100. From my MCT and MST feedback, I found that I need to be more
sequence and alignment in my lesson plan and my teaching. Thats
mean that my objective should match my 5e lesson steps so students
can finish the class by achieving specific objectives. Also while I am
teaching them my activities or ideas should be sequences so students
have an ability to understand. In addition, I should wait for students to
discover and understand no matter how long time they will spend to
get the ideas because mean purpose of the lesson to make students
learn. My mistake was focusing in my class time; I care about finishing
the lesson with the time more than students understanding.
101.
102. What duties / activities did you carry out during the school today?
Critically Reflect: Did you feel that you did a good job?
103. I tried to engage students more with the lesson by including an
interesting activities like doing poster, consumer plate and experiment.
The most interesting one that I feel students enjoy was creating their
consumer plate individually, because they were compete to create and
design the best plate.
104. What was the most interesting science activity or strategy you saw?
Why did you think it was interesting and worth noting/remember?
105. For the decomposers lesson me and MST let students do an
experiment to support their understanding about the lesson. We
prepare for them the materials which include orange, apple, bread,
plate, plastic bag and banana. Students cut this fruit in the plate and
put the plate in the plastic page with some drops of water and keep it
for one day so they observed the result in the next science class. They
were very surprised to see the rot in the apple, banana and bread. My
MST advice students to keep it for more days to see more rot produced
in the other things in the plastic bag. So I thing using same this
activities can help students to understand the lesson more and hard to
forget it.
106.
107. What did you try out? Was it successful? Why/why not? Which TP
competencies do you feel you achieved and which do you think that you
need to focus on next time?

108. In this week I focused in being friendly, very close to


the students and having a different science lesson by adding some fun
to the science. Think that I achieved this goal very well because in this
week my students were taking to me and trying to converse me to go
with them to the trip. That makes me feel happy and satisfied about my
effort that I spent it.
109.
110. What was the most important thing you learnt about students or
teaching science today? Can you think of any way you could better
engage students in any activity you saw today?
111. Students perception about learning science is to have an
interesting lesson with experiments and practical application for what
they are learning. But in real most of the lessons taught by lecturing
which is the traditional way of teaching. So teacher should focus in
students discover and build their knowledge. That achieved by using
the experiments and activities like craft work.
112.
113. Critically Reflect: Identify an aspect of your own behaviour (e.g. time
/ behaviour management) that you feel you could improve upon.
Discuss ways in which you could improve this.
114.
115. I know that teacher should have a good body language while she teaches as that will
help in managing classroom and students behavior. So I should improve my body language
by observing my monitor teacher body language and focus on students reaction to finding
out the useful body language. I should have a discussion with my monitor teacher to select
lessons and start to make a plan for it.
