After class observation, i have to prepare about the lesson in the class. Kru Pim told me that i will teach in two subject: ASEAN subject and Governance subject. In the first week teaching, i will teach ASEAN subject, and Governance subject for the next week. Total, i have 13 period of teaching.
. In ASEAN subject, i have to teach about comparation between Indonesian culture and Thailand culture. In creating lesson plan, i have to make sure that i will give a great treatment with the language problem. I tried to find a solution with looking for the best method for the lesson. Fortunately, i brought Indonesian hat like a peci, sundanese hat, and balinese hat. It could be helpfull for the lesson in the class. . I thought i found a good method to solve a language problem: more pictures, videos, practice, and fun games. I tried to find a basic Indonesian culture that will representation of all Indonesian with the diversity inside. Simple things like manners, traditional dance, favourite sports. . Another problem is about Thai culture. I dont know much about thai culture. I dont want to gave a wrong information about thai culture. and i guess the students will know better than me. So, i asked to Kru Pim to sent me any references about Thai culture. and he sent me a picture of thai culture, but i still dont have any idea how to explain it to the students. and i thought i will ask the students to explain their cultures. and i prepared a google translate. . In the last, i want to play a fun games to the students. Its called talking stick. I will give a things to a students and ask them to give to their friend while the music played. And when the music stopped, a student who hold the item have to answer my question. . I hope the lesson plan will be success. On Monday, January 29th 2018, that was our first day we go to school. The school introduced us to the student after Monday ceremony. They not just introduced us, but they also introduced teachers and students from Philiphines that will teach and study in Damrongratsongkroh School for two weeks. The ceremony was very special. A Director of the school gave us a flowers, and we have to speech in front of the students and teachers. At the moment, i have an opportunity to spoke in front of the students and teachers. I said thanks to the school, explain our purpose in this project, and suggest the students to ask anything about Indonesia to us because its time to sharing each others. . After ceremony, Mrs. Sunny introduced us to our mentor. My mentor is Mr. Pim. He is a head of Department of Social Studies. He teachs Law and Buddha. He carried me to the Department of Social Studies office and introduced to every social studies teachers. There are about 17 teachers teach Social Studies in Damrongratsongkroh School. Department of Social Studies has eight subject. There are Sociology, Geography, Economy, History, Buddha, ASEAN, Law, and Governance. Then, Mr. Pim took me to his class to observe the class. Actually, i didn’t understood about what they said because they spoke Thai. But, i asked a student about the topic of the lesson. And They talked about family law like wills after died. The students did the presentation in front of the class and audiences gave a question to presenter, and then the presenter gave a question to audience randomly by classtools.com. . We met a Philiphines teacher in the school. She is a teacher in Damrong School for about 2 years. We have a nice conversation with her. We talked about Indonesian, Philiphines, and Thailand. Mrs. Sunny came and gave us a Thai dishes to enjoy the conversation. They gave a table for me, and the Social Studies Teachers were very kind. . My first impression in my first day in the school was: Thai people are nice. After that, mrs. Sunny picked us up to the market to bought some food for dinner.
