studies. Our principal Sr.Vincy was so strict and she needs complete discipline in class
rooms. I had tried my best to keep the discipline of my class.

I taught in class 5A and 5B.My students are really good. They hadnt created any burden to
me. They had given good attention in my classes.
Class 5A:
My first class as a teacher was in class 5A.It was a class filled with smiling faces. Sr.Mary
my supervisor, had given her textbook and portions. I had to teach one poem, two fiction and
the grammar portions. Adverbs and its degree comparison. I didnt have to stress a lot there
as they were eager to learn things.
They were happy for their new teacher. Another astonishing thing was they asked for
homework. They were so studious, they always want me to teach. I had taught them the
portions, and they asked me for test paper. I made them to write articles and essays. I made
them to write conversations and made them to present it in class front. I had teach them the
three chapters from communicative English text book and Adverb and its degree its

comparison from grammar tree. Conducted test paper and they had scored good marks in
every test paper
Class 5B:
This class was a challenge to me. I loved going to their class because they were more than
students to me, they in fact were teaching me every single day. I quickly could finish my
portions there and so we had plenty of time left for activities. In class to keep them
entertained I made them play games and read to them poetry. This class taught me the great
power of influence a teacher has on her students. I made them to write essays and articles. I
made them to say speeches. We had got many time for arranging for science exhibition. I
had helped them a lot for their experiments.

classes when I felt difficult in smaller classes. They had also provides me a lot of lips to
control the students.
