School Classroom Observation Report for B.Ed. Student

Report on Classroom Observation

Introduction:
Teaching is the center of all education related topics. So as a student of the Institute of Education & Research, we had to teach in real classroom environment. Before starting teaching in a real classroom environment it helps a practice teacher to acquaint them with the process, method, of teaching if they observe a class of a certain level before entering a class as a teacher.
2.0 Description:
At the first day in the school I had to collect my routine. Then I introduced with those teachers who used to take those classes before me. I asked them politely if they could give me the permission to observe their classes. Both of them cordially invited me to observe their classes.
I have observed 3 Social science lessons; among those I am analyzing the one below:
Day: Sunday (16/01/2019)
Time: 11.05 Am – 11:50 Am
At the 2nd day in my school morning I waited for him (Mr. Shashank; social science teacher of class Seven – B) to come to the class in front of the class. When he came and asked the class captain to clean the bench at the behind of the class to let me sit there. The class captain cleaned up and I sat there to observe the class.
When the teacher entered the class all the students stood up and when she told them to sit, they took their sits. At first he asked the students to give their homework copies. At this time he inquired about some students.
After seeing the homework copies, he stood up from her chair and started lesson. At first he showed a photograph of “Sansad Bhawn” of Bangladesh and asked: Have you ever been their? Defining its significance to students he declared the lesson of the class today. Then he started to explain the issues one by one. At first he started with the fact what is Election. Then he Drew the classification of Election on the board and asked students to copy it. By this time he also came to me and assured his best possible help to me. Then he started to discuss the issues one by one. After discussing the classification of election he clarified the board.
Then he started to discuss the eligibility to be voter. After that he wrote down the homework in the right side of the black board (short-answer question no: 2 of exercise. While writing the Homework he reminded the class captain to write down the information about the class at the right top of the board.
Having finished his lesson, then he told the students about I.E.R. He described I.E.R as a famous institute to his class and made me acquainted myself to his class as their teacher from next class. He also made the students aware of the fact that if any student behaves anything wrong to me then, he would take action towards that student.
Then she let me talk to the class for five minutes and left the class. I, then introduce myself to the class and talked to them till the class ended.

5) No emphasizes on reinforcement.
6) Does not use any other teaching material but blackboard and constitution.

5.0 Possible ways of improving the Lesson:
1. He could use a poster writing on it the classifications of constitution and characteristics of a good constitution.
2. There should be formative assessment.
3. If he would check the class work copies of all the students after the class period it would help the students to do his class works more sincerely.
4. He needs to learn the use of board.
5. He should use activity based teaching method.
6. Should give emphasis to back-benchers.
