classroom observation

Classroom Observation

We go to Sathit Nakhon Si Thammarat Rajabhat University school for observation’s teacher. Her name is Rachael. Today She teaches English in grad 2. We got many experiences from there for 2 weeks. Why we choose to go there because it near the university had a lot of foreigner teachers. In our observation, we got many experiences that we can apply it for the future. For example, teaching technique, student’s behavior, how to manage classroom, teacher’s behavior and teaching materials. 

          The first topic is lesson structure. These are the way the lesson opens, develops and closeswhen the teacher came to the class, she greeting her students by singing a song

Good morning to you ,

Good morning to you,

Good morning ,

Good morning ,

Good morning to you

During the teacher teaches, she uses many activities with her students . She often uses the song for them when she teaches structure.

          The second topic is classroom management strategies, In the class had group already. There are 4 groups in this class. ( A, B, C, D) When she teaches she will give a point for each group that participate in the class. She will deduct point for group that doesn’t participate in the class. It motivates students to learn. The class is U shape. Teacher comes to class on time.

          The third topic is about types of activity. There are a great variety of ways to make entrepreneurship programs interesting and memorable through active participation in the learning process. In this class has group activities such as, sing a song in each group, answer the question in each group. In their participation they will get a point from teacher. These activities can help them to harmonize.

          The fourth topic is teaching strategies. Teaching strategies are the methods you use to allow learners to access the information you are teaching. In her teaching strategies, she usually teaches the content by practice, practice and practice to pronounce the words or sentences. In every class, teacher will use phonetic chart to teach the role of pronunciation.

          The fifth topic is teacher’s use of materials. "Teaching materials" is a generic term used to describe the resources teachers use to deliver instruction. Teaching materials can support student learning and increase student success.In this day teacher has many materials for teaching. There are textbook (Let’s go), exercise book and phonetic chart. In textbook, it uses for teaching structure of question and answer. In exercise book, it uses for giving homework to students every day. In the phonetic chart, it uses for pronouncing the words. Moreover, she makes it by herself. It makes her students can read the words very well.

          The sixth topic is teacher’s use of language. Language is important for teacher and students. Learning English is important for our daily life.. As we all know, English is the one of important language in this world. In this class has foreigner teacher. So, she usually speaks English all the time, but she speaks Thai a little bit. (ชอบ, ไม่ชอบ, ต้องการ) She uses good or very good foe feedback to students. Teacher gives precedence of pronunciation and grammar.

          The seventh topic is student’s use language. In this class, students use English language for answer the question from teacher. On the other hand, when they don’t know the vocabulary in English. They will use Thai language. For grammar almost student don’t understand but teacher will help them to pronounce the word.

The last topic is student’s interaction. Interaction is a kind of action that occurs as two or more objects have an effect upon one another. The idea of a two-way effect is essential in the concept of interaction, as opposed to a one-way causal effect. When teacher ask question students in each group will help together to answer the question. Some students don’t answer but someone answer.

In conclusion, from this observation about teacher teaching is very good technique because she apply the technique that can motivate student to learn such as, sing a song, pronounce the word, and give point. She use several materials to teach her students. But she should improve about classroom management because students speak all the time. In my opinion I will use this technique to teach my students in the future. Especially, the phonetic chart it makes my students can pronounce the vocabulary that they don’t know before.

Project/Problem based learning in elementary school.

     Today I listen video about Problem based learning or PBL. In the second week I present about this project.

I think is has many advantages for teacher training teacher because we can apply this method to our lesson plan

     One of the major advantages of project work is that it makes school more like real life. In real life, we don't spend several hours at a time listening to authorities who know more than we do and who tell us exactly what to do and how to do it. We need to be able to ask questions of a person we're learning from. We need to be able to link what the person is telling us with what we already know. And we need to be able to bring what we already know and experiences we've had that are relevant to the topic to the front of our minds and say something about them."

     You see this with a young class of learners who've not yet learned classroom behavior. Little kindergarten children all raise their hands at once, and you're lucky if they raise their hands. Usually they just break out and say something when the teacher tells a story about her experience because they want to share their experiences. This is how life is much of the time. And it's not that when children are doing that they're not learning. They want to be able to apply their natural tendencies to the learning process. And I think by giving children project work, we open up areas during the school day when children can speak about what they already know, when they can ask questions, they can express interests that are different from [those of] other children. And, I believe, where they can work on their strengths."

      To conclude problem based learning is method that can help students to study. most students can see the problem and study by the problem. I think is useful for me because I can improve my listening skill.
