this group and help the teacher to
make a mouse so she shows them a
model.
The teacher gives a leader a letter
and lets her give the students in the
group.
The teacher let the students take two
eyes and stick it in the letter m
Assessment
I prepare a formative assessment to
assess the students learning and
understanding of lesson so I will
assess them during the group
activity.
Most of this group are good
students and they know how
to write. So, give the low
level to trace letter m but the
high level to trace the words
start with a letter (M).
She/he helps me when I busy
with other groups.
The student takes the clay
from their friends and takes
one paper to form the letter
in it.
The students feel happy
when they form a letter and
they try to show the teacher.
The students feel happy
because they will make a
mouse with the teacher.

understanding. from the teacher.
- The green for students who
do correctly.
- Yellow for students who try
to do.
- Red for students who dont
do anything.

I assess the student in Activity 2 and

I observe that most of the student
dont recognize the words and the
activity hard for them so I prepare
for them a simple activity. Only one
student called Syed recognize the
word and connected with the picture
in the flash card, also he says the
sound of letter M.

Closing time

At the end of the lesson, she put The students listen to video
them a song related to the letter (M). carefully and try to imitate
This song used in their school. the man in the video to write
a letter (M).

Ask the student about the video and

what they see in the video.
General Comments: (including documented evidence of learning; comments from MST, MCT and/or
TA as appropriate)

I felt proud of what I do it when I teach the students, my MCT observe my lesson and my strategy I do it
during my lesson, she likes a different transition I made it with children. While my MCT notice that the
Activity 2 is difficult for students and my asses the student during the activity I I felt itd difficult for
them so I will prepare an activity is suitable for them to level.

Recommendations / future personal targets / areas of focus for next week:

I think I grow because I know to assess the students using a different strategy and in this lesson, I prepare
a traffic light and its part of formative assessment.
In next lesson, I will prepare activity easiest for group 2 that met their needs.
 My Reflection
My Reflection
My Teaching
What Went Well I do well when I assess the
students and I apply my
traffic light. Also, I do a lot
of transition in my lesson so
my class was management
and I feel happy.
EBI Even Better If My MCT tell me a comment
because she wants to see a
hands-on activity but in this
lesson, I let the student to
trace and write and one
group I let them to make a
mouse. She gives me
comment in this point.
Next Steps
(Identify which lesson this will be Next time, I will concentrate
seen in) in my LO and different
formative assessment during
the lesson.
Childrens Learning (use
assessments of LO)
The children concentrate in their
activity and I assess them after I
explain the lesson. some of them
understand what I teach and other
want more explain and teach. I
think my activity teach them how to
write more than explore thing.
Sometimes students needs to
develop their writing and speaking.
The better if I use extra activity for
students who complete tracing to let
them learn more things related with
letter m.
Next time, I will concentrate to
teach the student letter, sound of
letter rather than use vocabulary.
