Teaching Assistant
In the second week we were in Prathomsuksa Thammasat school, the activities we do is teaching assistant.
However, because of the grand celebration (festival of Thai culture) in
this school so learning and teaching is not very effective because all
the teachers and students are busy preparing for the event to be held,
the activities of teaching assistant we are helping prepare for the
event, one of which is to train students who emceed in English. While teachers train students in preparing for the offerings that will be displayed.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about this event, in addition to the
many games that were presented, the event was also attended by all
parents. Unfortunately, we were not able to attend the festival to completion due to clock dorm that does not let us go home until late
festival preparation
Teaching
In the period of teaching
carried out at week three, before we start teaching our class met with
officials of subjects science teacher name is Geng. To split grade how much we
guided, we were asked to create a lesson plan, preparing the material, and make
any appropriate medium learning. After the lesson plan,
materials, and media will be used in class approved by teachers and school
officials. I got the grade 4 to teach about science. Previously
we have also observed this class in the same subject is science.
I taught
for 60 minutes. The material that I gave
about the white light and rainbow. In addition to printed books,
I also use a video animation of the rainbow formation process as a learning
medium. One of the reasons why I use video animation, because
the children are very happy with things like animation and cartoons.
Evidently,
after video shown they are very eager to follow learning. Later,
I asked some people to tell what the content of the video that has been aired.
In
addition, I also asked a few people to come forward to write down the colors of
the rainbow and spell in English.
When the
weekend we were invited to a historic place in Bangkok, the Grand Palace.
There
are many buildings associated with the history of Buddhist.
