Summary and Suggestions

Purposes of practicum
     The main purposes of practicum were to practice our teaching and try to use English language in every circumstance.

     In this practicum, I had to teach on the topic "Angle" So the main topic that I needed to accomplished was to help students understand Angles, Understanding angles, Measuring Angles and Drawing Angles to 180 degrees.
Procedures of practicum
     After I got the topic for teaching, I found the textbook and workbook to specified what should be taught and started to write my lesson plan. The form of lesson plan came from SIS Palembang, that was easier in Lesson plan of Thailand. As a result, There were none of any problems happened, but in SIS, the lesson plan must be submitted weekly. So the lesson plan for my teaching must to be completed in once.
     After that, I needed to prepare material for my teaching, such as Angle's cards, A big protractor, A big ruler and Picture of the angles. Somethings I prepared by myself and something I prepared from Geometry Sketch's Pad on computer then printed out them. 
Outcomes of practicum
     The outcomes could be seen in the end of every class since I always let them work on worksheets. I could see whoever could do their work or not.
     Moreover, as I told from the last topic, I had an activity for them to drawing the angles on worksheet. Who can draw the fastest and who can do worksheet correct all, I would get something to them. It's Origami by I folded by myself from 12 papers
    
     Finally, I got Origami to all students but different from winner because all students gave Origami by using 6 papers.
The challenges of practicum
     The challenge of practicum was definitely teaching students in Mathematics by using English for communication.
     In Thailand, I ever prepared Math Camps and many activity with many students but never use English for communication. So in SIS Palembang, it was the first time to teach for the real students and handle real problems. It was so hard and so excited for me.
Overall impression
     I had many impressions for SIS Palembang since first time, it was hard to conclude in writing. The school is habitable, Teachers are very kindly, friendly, and helpful. The students are so lovely. I love everyone and everything in there
Suggestions for future improvement
     For my opinion, what they are being is good for me but if you are asking for the future improvement or any suggestions, I want more time for practicing teaching because I will improve myself and bring knowledge from Thailand to use in there for example folding Origami,  using abacus and Gaming for Mathematics because my buddy and my students was interesting in them.

 Moreover they was interesting in Thai language, Thai culture, Thai lifestyle, Thai dancing and Thai boxing.

Teaching Practice Procedures of teaching      Procedures of teaching integrated Questioning method, Demonstrate Method and Game  but there were some changes that were adapted for teaching in each class due to the school context.      First, I asked the students by using questions example "What is an angle?" after that, explained about naming angle and demonstrated the step to measure the angles and finally, checked for understanding by using game. Time management and organizing activities      There are 35 minutes for each class and sometimes the periods were connect about 2 period per class. Therefore  the first thing I had to manage was to set the content to fit with time.       In addition, I had 2 classes to teach in SIS Palembang, P4A and P4B.       I would teach them all I prepared, but in another classroom, I would teach the same but the activities would be changed, sometimes I had to cut it out and continued again in next period.

Pedagogical Content Teaching methods    Even though SIS Palembang uses the Cambridge curriculum, which is the high level of education. The teaching method is still based on teacher as a major authority because students in primary 4 are still children. Their abilities for learning are still weak and need the navigator to guide them. However, that doesn’t mean that students are only a passive leaner like the old learning style. Teacher will be a coach to guide them, not to command. After students get some guidance, they can surpass their obstacles in their leaning by themselves. Learning materials and innovation    There are many efficient materials provided in this school both for the main subjects and the extra curriculum. The main learning materials that are not different from the others are books and notebooks in each class. To support the Cambridge curriculum, The standard books for main subjects will be sent from the Cambridge. Therefore it

Observation on Teacher Planning for teaching      In SIS Palembang, teacher has to do lesson plans weekly so that they can change the components in their teaching when they have some changes or problems. Planning for teaching is up to students’ ability and the curriculum lesson,The standard book from Cambridge curriculum will be used mostly for the lessons.  The exercise which teacher produces in one class will almost depend on students’ ability. If they are great at working or learning process, teacher can give them the harder work. If students cannot do the exercise, sometimes teacher has no need to change their work, but give student more time to succeed. Preparing lessons and materials      After teachers have their lesson plans, preparing materials are what teachers have to do next week.  Teaching in class      The tasks in each period will be the same almost in every class but can be changed up to the time in each period. In lesson plan, teacher wr
