Creative, Innovative and Flexible: Ideal Traits of Teachers

Like mentioned in my previous post, some things come to an end but they can still be beautiful. Our free day has come to an end but it only means we will again meet with our lovely little brothers and sisters or younger friends otherwise known as our students.

               Referring to our itinerary, this would be our last week to closely be with the children and so we want to make the best use of our remaining time together.

               My day commenced with one class and the new topic was all about Adjectives.

               The students aren’t really used to being called randomly as per the experiences they shared themselves. Consequently, employing this technique made them want to pay more attention to our discussion.

               The second class had the same topic and the motivational level was challenging since it’s almost lunchtime and I can feel that the students are excited to go home, end the day and have their lunch.

               I had to put more energy and perkiness in my gestures and tone of voice to cater their current mode.

               The students later on participated and enjoyed the class with the activities that compel them to move around and stand up going forth the board and back to their seats.

               My cooperating teachers are really helpful in terms of translating at times when students aren’t able to completely understand and comprehend.

               Overall, the day ended productive and I was again immersed to the Indonesian classroom and school setting.
