REFLECTION ON MY EXPERIENCE IN LEARNING ‘TEACHING

READING SKILLS AND VOCABULARY IN THE PRIMARY ESL

CLASSROOM’

Learning about Reading in Semester 3 guided me on how to conduct

a good reading lesson in my everyday English class. Teaching reading is

crucial for every English teacher. Learning how to teach children reading

is important as reading is the fundamental for all knowledge.

Miss Yeoh Phaik Kin, my reading lecturer uses her own notes and

power point slides to explain each topic. Her explanation is clear and I am

able to understand.

The problem I face until now is I could not access the module

uploaded in the internet. I rely on the lecture’s notes and other reference

books.

Our assignment tasks are preparing graphic organizers, writing a

lesson plan and conduct a teaching lesson in my own school. Writing a

lengthy lesson plan, preparation, teaching aids and recording the teaching

needs a lot of hard work.

Some problems I face doing this period are selecting an appropriate

story book according to my pupils’ levels and the flow of the lesson.

Somehow or rather the lesson that you plan may not turn out well during

practice as certain weaknesses can only be seen during the teaching

process.

I did some adjustments to the lesson plan. This experience taught

me how I should plan a reading lesson well. I should take into

consideration of certain weaknesses to further improve the lesson plan.

One example of weakness is during the practice stage, the matching

words to pictures. During this stage, the teacher should have prepared the

pictures and sentence patterns.

Throughout the process, I learned that preparing and actually

conducting the lesson plan can differ greatly. The teacher should be wise

enough to make the necessary changes spontaneously to cater according

to the pupils’ levels and at the same time adjust the lesson appropriately.
