Phonic Reflection

In this third month, I taught quite similar with the previous months, which were about phonic and grammar. In this month I started teaching on 3rd October 2016. The first thing I did was assist one class (with 4 five years old students) which was doing phonic 3 final test, during the test I was monitoring the students while doing their test and also gave explanation when they had something unclear with the questions. I paid attention that the students were actually did it very well, they absorbed the material very quick but most of them made spelling mistakes, for example : they wrote the word “kite” with “kait” and “duck” with “dack”. The test itself were about reading, dictation, multiple choice and making sentences. I also paid attention

On Monday, I assist one phonic class only, we learnt about “J” sound, as usual the host teacher explaining on the whiteboard and I helped them to do, check and correct the excercises from the book or worksheet and the in the class that I taught by my self we just reviewed about present simple and present continous and asked her to do some excercises, after it finished we continued to have a look at the excercises on her school book. On Tuesday, I assist two phonic class and taught one class. In the class that I assist the sound that given were about “ou and ow” sound and in the second class the topics were about “y” sound and singular pronoun.

After finish assisting those 2 classes, I taught one class, which had phonic 5 pre-test at the previous week. In that day I decided to review all the sounds and vocabularies from Phonic 5 which were “z, w, ng, v, oo” sounds, I gave them a lot of excercises and homework, wishing they would review the task that been taught at home. The next day (On Wednesday) I went to the office branch and spread the brochure again. On Thursday, I assist two classes, in the first class, the topic was about “oi” sound and in the second class, we learnt about short and long vowel (Jolly phonic version) , to be known the short and long vowel that been used in Jolly phonic were quite different from the international ones. The material was design for children so that they could understand them easier. On Friday I didn’t come because at that time I was not feeling
