Nunthiya's Micro Teaching Reflect

6/ October/ 2014

               According to Nunthiya’s micro teaching, I would like to reflect her teaching to develop and adopt in my teaching. The micro teaching is related to Tourism and the Environment in lesson: “The beaches are disappearing”. The time required in this lesson is an hour per period. I found that his micro teaching is full of useful techniques and materials; however, there is something that needs to be developed. Lesson plan “The beaches are disappearing” consists of aim, objectives, standards, evaluation, lesson plan outline, and rubric. In lesson plan outline consists of pre-task (15 minutes), task-cycle (30 minutes), and language focus (15 minutes). Here are some reflections of her micro-teaching.

                From the lesson “The beaches are disappearing” Nunthiya has set the learning standard as the following; 1.1(4): Answer questions from listening to and reading sentences, dialogues and 1.2 (5): Speak and write to describe their own feelings and opinions about various matters, activities, experiences and news/incidents, as well as provide justifications appropriately. Terminal objectives: Students will be able to listen to the story and the conversation about the beach in Thailand. Moreover, she has set the enabling objective as follows: Students will be able to listen and answer questions from the story and the conversation about the beach in Thailand and student will be able to speak and write to describe their own feelings and opinions about the beach using expressing obligation. In the teaching steps, she introduces students about the new vocabulary, and then she lets students match the picture with the correct words. I think that it is a great idea to teach students the vocabulary by game. Moreover, her classroom language is quite good. Nevertheless, there are some mistakes that she can do it better if she improves it. The recording of the conversation relating to the lesson “The beaches are disappearing” represents of her enthusiasm in teacher, but she can do it better, if she native speakers in her audio recording.

                   In conclusion, “The beaches are disappearing” is one of good lessons to teach English with public mind, if teacher designs the goal and the content appropriately.  In addition, Nunthiya s’ teaching materials are very interesting, but in some activities need to be to developed to be the better ones. However, “The beaches are disappearing” is the lesson that enhances students to think the ways to take care the world and public mind to save the environment and help the others. At the end of lesson students can get both knowledge and morality. 

Montree's Micro Teaching Reflect

   

              According to Montree’s micro teaching, I would like to reflect his work to develop and adopt in my teaching techniques. The micro teaching is related to Environment needed for life in lesson: “Let’s go to Phuket”. The time required in this lesson is 1:30 hours. I found that his micro teaching is full of useful techniques and materials; however, there is something that still needs to be developed. Lesson plan “Let’s go to Phuket” consists of aim, objectives, standards, evaluation, lesson plan outline, and rubric. In lesson plan outline consists of pre-task (20 minutes), task-cycle (40 minutes), and language focus (30 minutes).

               First of all the aim of “Let’s go to Phuket”is students introduce tourism attraction to the visitors.  Meanwhile the objectives by the end of this lesson, student will be able to ask and answer about tourist attraction and give direction to the tourist. Moreover, the standard is the indicator number 1.2.4 Speak appropriately to ask for and give data, explain, compare and express opinions about tourist attraction. Surely, these are beneficial goals for the students, but something is not well matched enough. Next, the teaching steps of Montree are interesting. He starts the class by introducing the lesson that students are going to learn and attracts the students by asking the students to play the game related to the lesson. Afterwards, he catches students ‘attention by open the very interesting clip of Phuket tourism. 4.           There are effectives activities in his teaching, one of them is group discussion. He asks students to sit in group and discuss concerning to the handout provided “Keeping Patong beach clean”, who, what, where, when and why.  In this time students have an opportunity to discuss together and he walks around to encourage the students. Moreover, at the end of lesson, he asks students to summarize the lesson together by using the question “What we have learnt today?” It seems a good lesson; however, there is something needed to be improved. For those things that needed to be improved are time management that is not appropriate with the activities, and the rubric organizing is not well matched with the content of the lesson and students’ task.

                To sum up, it can be said that “Let’s go to Phuket” is an effective lesson if it is improved and developed appropriately. Montree’s materials are very interesting, but in some activities like language focus is quite bored. Nevertheless, it can be improved by using teaching techniques that well matched with the contents. Last but not least, Montree’s lesson “Let’s go to Phuket” can give students the lesson about the public mind and the way to protect the environment by cleaning Paton Beach. Not only the knowledge that students can receive from this lesson, but also the morality by helping the others is a good thing for learners in the 21^st century to learn and adopt.

              Owe to Phichaya Khunchamnaan micro teaching on 6th October, 2014, I would like to reflect about his effective techniques and and the things that needed to be improved. His lesson related to saving the environment "Acid Rain". To indicate the students to know and find the ways to solve the problems about "Acid Rain". It is a good lesson for students to know about the effect of the nature that attacks them.

Afterwards, he reviewed the vocabulary by letting the searching for the vocabulary and the picture under the table and matched with their friends.Afterwards, teacher taught the vocabulary by show the meaning in Thai and gave students repeat after him. That is all of vocabulary about acid rain. In addition, teacher divided student in group to rearrange the sentences and use them to explain the cycle of acid rain. The grammar focus of the lesson was "will" about future simple tense.

                   To sum up, Pichaya micro teaching consisted of  many activities to for students to learn, and this is good things for his lesson. However, I think that he should check his instructional materials properly before the class. According to in matching vocabulary and pictures activity, there were some vocabulary which did not match to the picture.

Tipperat Meabua's Micro Teaching's Reflect

                According to Tipparat’s micro teaching, I would like to reflect his work to develop and adopt in my teaching techniques. The micro teaching is related to asking and giving direction.  Surely, it is very popular topic of the micro teaching. I found that his micro teaching is full of useful techniques and materials; however, there is something that still needs to be developed.  Now, let's see what I can see from this micro teaching.

                     Tipparat began her teaching by greeting and ask some questions about giving direction. Then, Students were stimulated by asking questions that where do you often  go and why. After, students giving the answer,teacher wrote the answer onto the power point. For example:   a convenient shop: to buy things,   a swimming pool: to exercise,  a zoo: to enjoy looking at wild animals. Next, teacher chose the place near the school and  let the students gave direction to that place. Do you know what we will learn today? she asked. After that, students watched the video about asking for and giving direction. They had to listen to the audio and repeated after the audio. After listening the audio, teacher divided students into two groups (group A and group B) and gives conversation about asking and giving direction to the students. Then students in each group read aloud the given conversation. Then, teacher asked students to sit in pair and practiced asking for and giving directions with their partner by using the map. Next, teacher explained the preposition that used  to giving direction such as turn left, turn right, go straight, between, across from, opposite, next to, at the corner, etc. Before finishing the lesson, she summarized the contents again.

              To sum up, there are both useful and needed to be imporved techniques in her micro teaching. The useful things are teacher and studenst have interaction to move the classroo. However, the things that she should be developed are self - confident,and classroom language using. Nevertheless, the overall teaching seems very good. If she improve them, I think, it will be a good lesson for the students to learn.

Atinut Galawig’ Micro Teaching Reflect

              From  Atinut’s micro teaching, I would like to reflect her teaching to develop and adopt in my teaching. The micro teaching is related to how the young learner to put sort garbage in the bin appropriately. The time required in this lesson is an hour per period. I found that her micro teaching is full of useful techniques and materials; however, there is something that needs to be developed. 

           Atinut micro teaching was about sorting the garbage. She began the lesson by greeting students. Next, she stimulated  the situation  by  asking  students  to  look to the garbage under  their  table    and  ask them  what should  they  do  with  these  garbage?  After that , she shown three  kinds  of  bins  and  bring  out  of  the  garbage  and  teach  the  students  a  vocabulary  about  them.  For example, waste  tire,  waste  can,  waste glass, waste paper etc. In Task Cycle, She divided  students  in  to  groups  and  then  ask  them  to  come  out  and  play  game  " Where  should  I  go ? ".  This  game  one  of  the  student  have  to  be  close  his  eyes  and  each  students  in  their  group  have  to  run  to  get  a  garbage  and  bring  it  back  to  the  blinded  students.  After  that  he  have  to  ask  "Is  this a / an .......... ?"  If  his  answer  correct  he  has  to  put  that  garbage  in  the  correct  bin  also.  From  this  point  the  students  is  going  to  have  fun   and  also  learn  how  to  ask  and give information  with  their  friends. It gave students with fun activities and knowledge together.

                To sum up, Atinut's micro teaching was quite good.Students learn  how  to  sort  the  garbage  in  the bins correctly. Moreover, the grammar point the interrogative sentence of present perfect tense was useful for the students. However, she did not summarize how the lesson related to the public mind. I think that the public mind should be focused.
