First Week Journal

Introducing myself:
In the first day of my teaching practice, I went to Al Hanan kindergarten in Ajman. I
introduced myself to the principal and the vice principal, they welcomed me to the
school and they asked me to choose either to stay in one class or to move with the
English teacher between two classes. I chose to stay in KG2/7. I introduced myself to
teacher Mariam the English teacher an the Arabic teach Zainab. They were
welcoming and happy. I also met a trainee from Zayed University and she was
friendly.

Teaching lessons:
Throughout the week, I taught two lessons on Tuesday and Wednesday. Because it
was my first week, it was a bit hard for me to teach children that they still dint get
used with me and I didn’t get used with them, but it is was fine because I consider it
as training. Before teaching my first lesson, I thought that children would be noisy.,
but when I taught them, they were quite and shy. I tried my best to make them
engaged by playing the songs of sounds, then they started to be more active and
engaged to the lesson. The lesson was about letter /t/.

Professionalism:
In my first week I came to school on time and I lest on time. I communicated with the
principal, vice principal and the English teacher by taking her number and contact her
on WhatsApp if I have any question. Everything was easy and flexible in the first
week.
