    The document summarizes a lesson reflection by a teacher on teaching a story about long vowel O sounds. The teacher taught the story to KG1 and KG2 students together in the playground, which caused behavior issues. Some students were engaged but most lost interest quickly. For future lessons, the teacher plans to use a more engaging location and story, improve their reading skills, and address misbehavior instead of ignoring it. The overall goal was met but the delivery needed improvement to better teach the sounds and keep students focused.

    Overall aim and context of the lesson

    I taught a short part of the lesson today which is storytelling, I was aiming that the students will be able
    to understand that print is a prerequisite to reading. However, the main aim was to let students recognize
    sounds and be able to identify words wit h long vowel O.

    SWC Lesson Reflection


    Select (S):
    The lesson was about the long vowel O, students identified few words from the story with long vowel
    u such as Zoad, Toad, boat, and moat. I was addressing kg 1 and kg 2 students at the same time. Kg 2
    HA students could read the story by themselves, MA students would connect the picture to the sentence
    to understand, and LA students would listen to the teacher while reading the story and they will be able
    to make the connection between the pictures and wha t they are listening to. However, since it was my
    first time reading/ teaching kg 1 students I could see that most of them were able to make the connection
    between the pictures and what they are listening to & there were two students that could read some
    words by themselves.

    Describe (D):
    The lesson takes place in Al Alfiah Filipino Private School [AFPS] on the 6th of March on Tuesday,
    MST and I discussed the story on Sunday which is two days before Tuesday, and I planned reading the
    story for kg 2 only, but since I took them to the playground and kg 1 students were there we joined the
    two classes together. The main purpose of the story was to introduce long vowel O words to the students
    and make them able to read those words independently along with unde rstanding its meaning. At the
    beginning of the lesson, all students were paying attention except one who prefers to play rather than
    listening to the story. I was able to manage that one student by letting him sits beside me, however, I
    don’t think that student listened to the story since he was facing the others and seems to be
    daydreaming. Students were repeating the long vowel O words with the teacher (me) and answering
    the questions given. Later on, after one minute and few seconds they started to lose attention and
    interest, only a few were able to follow.
    Analyze (A):
    There are different causes of students' actions and why they weren’t able to pay more attention. First,
    reading on the playground is risky because students c are more about playing. Second, the teacher (I)
    didn’t provide proper tone, intonation, and emotions for kindergarten students, which made students
    lose interest. Third, the story and the pictures were not visually attractive (black and white). Last, the
    story took longer time than expected and kg students have short attention span which should be taken
    into consideration. Kg 2 students were able to understand the story, the purpose of it and were able to
    know the difference between “frog and toad”. W hilst kg 1 students were only able to understand the
    story without knowing that the main purpose of it is to learn long vowel O words. Students weren’t
    engaged enough and properly.

    Appraise (A):
    As long as there are no consequences for students’ misbehaving coming from the teachers, students
    won’t listen to the teacher. I was able to meet my teaching goals, and students were able to learn long
    vowel O words. However, it’s not a good way to learn things, since it was in the playground,
    misbehaving students were ignored by the teacher (I), and reading the story wasn’t that interesting.
    Yet the students were able to learn words with long vowel O.

    Transform (T):
    First thing I will never take students to the playground to read a story or have a lesson there. Second,
    I will use more visually attractive story. Third, I will try to develop my reading stories skills (tone,
    intonation, emotions, etc.) Lastly, I shall ne ver ignore misbehaving and try to talk about it with the
    students as much as possible for them to understand what’s right and wrong. Acting the story out is
    one way to grasp students’ attention and I should work more to develop that.
