FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL INDUCTION

 SCHOOL INDUCTION PROGRAM-DAY 1

October 21,2024

Today was our first day of the school induction program. We arrived at GHSS Jawahar school,Ayoor at 9:15 AM as a group of six teacher trainees: myself(Arathi.B.G) and Akshaya from the Natural science option;Ashna Reji and Ashwathy from the Mathematics option; and Alaka and Summaya from the Physical science option. Ashna Reji was our leader. We approached the school Headmistress's room and our leader handed over the request from our college along with the attendance register to the HM Deepa miss. Deepa miss gave us some instructions and asked the school peon to clean the room near the staff room for us. We signed the register and settled into the allotted room. In the meantime, our Sreedevi Miss came to school to observe the senior teacher trainees, giving us opportunity to receive some advice from her as well.

REFLECTION ON SCHOOL EXPERIENCE

By 10.00 AM , the school prayer started. After that, classes began. When all the teachers arrived, we met the concerned subject teachers, requested class observations, and shared lessons. We also took some time to observe the school and its surroundings and interacted with a few students.

As this was our first day, we didn't have classes to observe. Instead, we had the opportunity to assist with evaluating and entering details for the National Achievement Survey(NAS) conducted today. The NAS is a national level assessment of learning achievements of school students, covering classes 3,5,8 and 10 in government -aided, private and central government schools. It assesses students in various subjects, including language, mathematic, science, social science and environmental studies.

By 1 PM, the lunch started and we served students lunch, which included rice, sambar and beetroot thoran. This is part of the Midday Meal Scheme. In Kerala, the Midday Meal Scheme began in 1984 and consists of providing cooked meals to school children. During school intervals, students engage in extracurricular activities such as playing football, "kallukali"(a traditional game using pebbles), etc. These activities help students develop both their physical and mental health. School was till 4 PM. We marked our attendance in the register and left the school.

  RAISING AWARENESS ON INTERNATIONAL EPILEPSY DAY On February 12, 2025, Sabarigiri College of Education celebrated International Epilepsy Day, a global event aimed at raising awareness about epilepsy. The program began with Arathi as the anchor, welcoming everyone and setting the tone for the day’s activities. Aparna delivered an insightful speech, explaining epilepsy as a neurological condition that affects people of all ages and backgrounds, making them prone to recurrent seizures. She highlighted the importance of awareness and support for those living with the condition. The event included a powerful awareness play, performed by Pooja, Muhsina, Arya, Akshaya, Nuju, Ameena, and Aparna. The play depicted the dos and don’ts when witnessing an epileptic seizure.

The play also emphasized that nothing should be placed in the per...

  TEACHING PRACTICE WEEK 4 : Monday (04/08/2025) to Friday (08/08/2025) REFLECTION ON SCHOOL EXPERIENCE 04/08/2025-Day 17 On the 17th day of my first phase of teaching practice, I reached the school by 9:00 am. After reporting to the office and signing the attendance register, I took up my assigned discipline duty in the High School section. Following the morning prayer, we settled in our allotted rooms. Since it was Monday, I did not have any subject hours scheduled. A little later, my concerned subject teacher, Renija Miss, entrusted me with the responsibility of completing the attendance register and the Noon Feeding attendance register for her class. This task was a new learning experience for me, as I wasn’t previously aware that a separate register existed specifically for noon feeding attendance. I successfully completed both registers. During the third period, I observed my peer teacher trainee’s class for 8th standard students. Overall, it was a good session. The teacher u...

VISIT TO BUDS SCHOOL – A HEARTWARMING EXPERIENCE January 30,2025 As part of our NSS activities, we had the wonderful opportunity to visit Buds School at Alayamon Panchayat. It was an enriching and entertaining experience that left a lasting impression on all of us. We, a group of 43 NSS volunteers along with our teachers Jaseena Miss, Sreedevi Miss, and Prathibha Miss, traveled to the school . We reached the school at 10:30 AM and were warmly welcomed by the students and teachers. Due to space constraints, we arranged the seating outside, ensuring a comfortable setup for all. Our friend Aravind introduced us to the students, and soon we learned about their remarkable achievements. Many of them had participated in Kalolsavam and won great honors, proving their exceptional talents. The program began with a song performance by one of the students, which we all enjoyed and applauded. One student, Appu, was very active and energetic, not worrying about his disabilities.  Some small ch...
