Day 1 - The Beginning

As I walked towards the Main Auditorium of the school, my mind was filled with an array of emotions. This was not just an opportunity to practice the art of teaching but a sign to check whether I'd make a good teacher or not. When it was time for prayer, all that was left in me was a sense of anxiousness. 

The morning prayer soothed my turbulent mind and I was filled with new hopes. Our team of 30 was captained by Riya, with Anju Mariam as her first mate. Later our MTTC team was formally introduced to the school's principal and headmaster in a meeting at 9:30 am. Their valuable words helped us regain our confidence. Thus, I was prepared to meet my boys in 8W. They were a colorful bunch and my concerned teacher Mrs. Beena was very supportive.

The lunch felt incredibly tasty. The line duty in the evening at St. Mary's made me realize the vastness of the school.Although we got parched in the sun, we realized that it's not easy being a teacher. The day concluded with the simple ritual of marking our attendance, and by 4:15 pm, we bid our goodbyes to the school.

Aliferous

The morning was made special by the initial assembly conducted by the first year B.Ed. English students. The function was more awe inspiring as we unfurled our association's name, "Aliferous" and its official logo. The assembly was a huge success not only because it was well-organized but also since all of us came together to make it happen. The first session was our optional class by Meekha ma'am. Then we had Ancy ma'am's class. We revised certain points from Technology section and moved on to the Psychology section about Growth and Development. Then we had a brief NAAC mock visit session. Finally, we went to our own classes.

With the end of the Christmas holidays, we have restarted our journey as prospective teachers. The initial session was our optional class was Meekha ma'am. We discussed in detail about the Pedagogic Content Analysis of SCERT text books (8,9,10) in groups. The next session was engaged by Joju sir. He started the class with a prayer to the new year of 2022. We discussed about the basics of e - content and were assigned to create an e - content on our own.  The last hours were dealt by Maya ma'am. We discussed about the various teacher competencies, qualities etc. It was an engaging session with lots to reflect upon.
