Commitment to the Profession F D C B A

Comments:
Shaikha had her resources prepared and had a clear objective for the Phonics
lesson she did. The set sounds v and y were revised well verbally and Shaikha
used the RWI strategies
Planning for Learning F D C B A
Comments:
Shaikha’s planning for this activity was good, however the activities themselves were a little boring and
could have been more imaginative and interactive for children. The children did the activities very
quickly and I am not sure how much they truly linked to the phonic sounds.

Managing Learning F D C B A
Comments:
During this lesson Shaikha was able to control the children on the carpet and had a good rapport with
the children – getting them to repeat the sounds well.
Implementing Learning F D C B A
Comments:
She implemented the phonics activities well, however when describing what to do for the activities
Shaikha could have benefited from having an example already done for the children to have a reference,
or she could have sat down and shown the children. Once again there was not much interaction with the
children so learning was not gauged verbally by Shaikha

Assessment F D C B A
Comments:
Shaikha did do a reflection of the sounds to see who understood them.
Reflection on Practice F D C B A
Comments:
In general, Shaikha’s teaching practise is good however there is room for improvement in some areas as
mentioned above. Shaikha needs to ‘stretch’ herself when it comes to creating activities and try and
research activities that are more hands on and related to inquiry as her activities were quite mundane
and worksheet based
