The Lesson Plan Central

As part of the third semester school based works of B.Ed curriculum prescribed by the University of Kerala, the teacher trainings are expected to create a digital textbook based on any of the chapter from class 8th to 10th.   A digital textbook is an electronic version of a printed textbook, accessible on devices like computers and tablets. It often includes interactive features, search capabilities, and portability benefits. Digital textbooks can be updated easily, offer cost savings, and have environmental advantages over printed versions. Steps in creating a digital textbook  Creating a digital textbook involves: 1. Content Development 2. Platform Selection 3. Design and Layout 4. Formatting and Testing 5. Publishing 6. Updates and Maintenance As part of my practical works it digital textbook based on the chapter 'For A Safer Tomorrow' was created which can be viewed below: Sabira _digital_textbook_disasterManagement (click on  the above hyperlink)

Streak of this teaching practice was of course hazel free for me, since I had only a little portion left to finish and enough classes to do that. Most of my portions are over and activities have been finished. I was stress free even though my physical well being was not on point. I made soverniers for my fellow teacher training to remember the good days we spend here and they way they supported me through the crucial phase of my pregnancy and physical well being. It was a delight in itself. I finished my chapters by 31st of January. I had three more days left which meant by classes to do divisions and finish the note giving of these chapters. I was able to manage them well enough. Even though I am not expected to feel so I was extremely relieved that the face has came to an end especially due to my physical health issues. It was an emotional week also since the teachers we wear working along side for the past 45 + days made us Soya biryani and payasam specially to appreciate our effort...

As per the B.Ed curriculum prescribed by University of Kerala for Semester III, a song composition work has to be done by the teacher trainee, in connection with any of the topic handled in classroom during the training phase. During the first phase of my B.Ed teaching practice, I was posted for training at BNV V&HSS for Boys, Thiruvallam. The allotted class was IXth standard. I handled a chapter named- കേരളം: 8ആം നൂറ്റാണ്ടു മുതൽ 18ആം നൂറ്റാണ്ടു വരെ - which basically talks about the cultural, geographical, political, social, land related and economic aspects of Kerala during the mid century of 8-18th CE. This is a poem I composed on the same theme, en capsuling the essence of the chapter, and used during the end of the lesson- as a sumup of why the chapter is important. Since my lesson plans were in malayalam and I handled the malayalam medium students, the poem was also written in malayalam. It goes like this.... വൈവിധ്യത്തിലെ ഏകത്വം --------------------------------------------...

With only a few days left  before us to finish the pending portions and assigned works from the college and school, the trainees are already at full pace. Most of us as lagging behind the portion completion. Luckily, I need barely 5 more periods, and then I can start off with the revisions of these chapters, like I did during December. This week I started with the last chapter which  deals with a geography portion. The chapter is related to disaster management and various disasters that happened in Kerala and India during the past few years. It is quiet and interesting chapter to deal with and  I look forward to introducing a lot of teaching aids in the classroom. I have a positive Outlook towards how to present this chapter to the students and how I can prepare them to the disasters that they might face or here of in their lifetime. We also conducted a yoga workshop as part of our physical education and health education duties assignment from the college during this week...

 As part of the First Phase teaching practice at BNV V&HSS for Boys (Thiruvallam), we were asked to prepare students from the school to conduct a morning assembly, by the head mistress of the school- Ambili teacher. After informing the college authority, we decided to conduct the same as a special assembly on 25th of January 2024- in connection with the occasion of 74th Republic day of India, at 9.30am. We chose students of different classes after an initial audition, and tried to promote hidden gems among them more. The students were then prepared and given practices of stage presentation by the teacher trainees. Later, they were taken to the Head Mistress and Mr.Biju- malayalam sir, for final readings of presentation. The program became a success and the trainees were appreciated by the school authority- teachers and the HM alike. Here are the photoes from the day. - Assembly ground of BNV V&HSS for Boys - Prayer Group - Pledge by the student of 9A  - Thought for the...

 This was a very quite week for us. I was already very busy finishing up my portion of history before I leave for my college. Due to my health issues I wasn't able to take much classes this week to I made sure to take at least one class per day. Students were very cooperative but recently it has been noted that they are taking more freedom with us. For some of us managing the classrooms are quite a job right now. Some days some students of my classroom are also behaving extremely different from how they were during the beginning. The headmistress says this is a common phenomenon scene during the teaching training last days at school. Students get acquainted with the drainage and have quite very good knowledge of how far the trainee will go. They also know that the drainage do not have much power compared to the that of a regular teacher and they take more freedom resulting in difficulties of managing them. For some fortunate safe with me this scenario is at low levels come back to ...

  This was a busy week for the teacher training at bnv boys. We conducted a school assembly on Monday which was also part of our school based activity. Duties were assign to each members of the teaching training team and all of us did their part very well. As the team leader I was incharge of the coordination, and I also participated in the activities through presenting a thought for the day for the students.  From Tuesday onwards I started my second chapter which is history dealing with medieval period of Kerala society. As I have already realized that I am interested in taking history portions this was not a very tough task for me, come back to my other classmates. I have also conducted the achievement and diagnostic test test and the results came out better than I expected. On Thursday Lakshmi teacher came for my observation while I was taking the class. It was unexpected but I was able to perform well in the classroom. Teacher appreciated the number of teaching aids I was ...
