Day 5: 06 December 2024

I used an inquiry training model in IX to introduce kinetic energy. And uses of spherical mirrors were discussed in VIII

Slides used in VIII: 1, 2

Day 6-10: 09-13 December 2024

During the second terminal examinations, we had no significant work other than checking the discipline of students. Which was not a serious challenge, students seem to be more attentive to our requests. 


Conclusion

The first two weeks coming back incredible. Teaching these students are a great gift and I am happy where I am.

Suggestions

  • Planning better always leads to better results
  • I need to be better at checking notes
