I just came out of an exam in NIE. We were required to come up with a lesson plan incorporating skills on speaking, listening and grammar. We were given a text type (narrative), and a brief description of the class we were to be teaching (sec 3 express from good autonomous school), and were given 1 hr 45 min to design the lesson plan.
I took a good 45 minutes to come up with the pre-activity!!!! I googled the above picture, and my plan was to get my students to break into groups of 4 to discuss the picture, and to infer as much as they could from it.
I panicked a lot more than I expected. Man, it sure isn't easy to come up with a comprehensive, fun and effective lesson. I sure lack the experience. My mum, however, reassured me after we prayed in the car, "You'll be an expert by the time you do your 100th lesson plan".
This morning I was so worried about this in-class exam that I fell ill! But it only magnified the Lord's grace on me so much more. He provided me with the most supportive mom in the world, and also, a most delightful grandmother. They supported me, prayed for me, cared for me, massaged me, encouraged me. I LOVE THEM!!! Thank You Lord for them!!! I discovered that I really, really am a little princess. :)
