Your Analysis
What do you think prompted the teacher to choose the
materials/learning resources that he/she used?
I think, the teacher wanted her students to participate the learning

process. In my own understanding. She wanted to let her students be attentive

and be participate in their lesson and let her students utilize their analytical skills.
 What difficulties, if any, did the teacher experience? How can
this be managed?
There was no difficulty that the teacher experienced as I observed.

The class was well managed and the teacher did not find it hard to convince her

students to participate in the activity.

Over-all, were the learning resources/materials used

effectively? Why? Why not?
Yes it did. All the students are participated in the activity. And then

some of them were able to guess what was asked. And lastly, their scores on

their seatwork/exercises showed a positive result.

Your Reflections

1. Put yourself on the place of the teacher. What would you do similarly

and what would you do differently if you will teach the same lesson to

the same group of students? Why?

If I will be a teacher, I used an Inductive approach. I will also do

some activities and not merely discussing. I will create a game through the

use of projector. If the resources are not available, I will use boards or

cardboards and utilize their physical activity by dividing them into groups to

be followed by a short discussion.
