What will you do if you everything is not your control?
March 15, 2023 is the final review day before the students will be having their third quarter examination but one of the sections still aren’t done with their performance task so I assumed that the performance task will take place that afternoon like the other classes but I was actually surprised when my CT asked me to conduct the re mediation after the performance task. I agreed as I think it is better for the learners to be able to have a short recall before their exam. I then modified my ppt to fit in one hour as the time left is only one hour.
The start was great as they are participating and reciting and even if there is a lot of commotion, I still managed to make them do some task and such. Because I noticed that they don’t seem to be giving a care of what I am instructing them to do, I was quick to finish the lesson as I no longer include the task because it is no longer worth it as the students seem to not care about it. I discussed tbe main points of my remediation before moving to the practice where just like the previous classes, I let them answer as a class.
Our supervisor once told us that if the students are still not responding how we want them to, we still haven’t given our all. He’s right, I did what I can to settle them down, to make them participate but I guess they just are not interested. A huge wave of shame flooded my system upon realizing that I am such an incompetent person to begin with. Because how come my fellow student teachers managed them well while they just are not listening to me or even giving any care that I am in front of them?
In the end, I didn’t even finish the practice as I spent most of my time trying to settle them down. It is not a successful day to begin with and I’m not proud of it.
