Procedures of teaching

Teaching is quite going right. I start by assign the students to identify the groups of living things by themselves for appeal to them, and curious about the lesson. I continue the activities that the students doing most as much as I can, for example, the nature of each group discussion, and the bingo. Although I plan the activities probably finish in time, the discussion and classification take for a long time, so I don't provide the bingo and the worksheet in this class and don't prepare for this also. The leftovers were taught in the next period.

Teaching method and techniques

There are 2 methods in this class. The discussion is a collaborative exchange of ideas among a teacher and students or among students for the purpose of furthering students thinking, learning, and understanding. The another is game that the students engaged and fun. After all, I provided positive reinforcement by the token economy that I give them the star for anyone who can answer my question then they can exchange into reward, so the students so excited and active.

Classroom management

The most students active to play in the activities, but they speak loud and don't stay in their place because they want to answer my question to get the stars and change into rewards, so they stand around me instead of sitting down neatly. In front of the classroom is in confusion but in the back was neglected. The knowledge that they discuss can't make some of them understand truly. I should attend to everyone and manage it better.

Material

The picture card about living things includes plant pictures, animal pictures, fungi pictures, and micro-organism pictures for students identify the groups of living things and easy to understand.
