Today was our last practice day. In the morning we went to the university to present all of things we did. Tadjiyeva accepted our file checking them. She was pleased with our portfolio. Finally we finished our practice. Until september we will have a good holiday.
Reflective writing.
I expected lots of challenges from the practice before beginning. At first I personally thought that process of practice became a bit difficult for us because of being first time during 3 years. Until our third course we did not have any practice so that it seemed complicated but while this practice, I expoce plenty of winning challenges which can help me achieve success in my future occupation. To add this, another expectation from the practice was that I thought we had to spend more time at university during these hot summer days. Of course it could influence on our practice badly. However, we had to visit university twice or 3 times a week to take necessary advices, explanation and tasks from Tadjiyeva. And we had to spend more time at home for our practice to do our own assignments.
At the beginning of the practice our head of the chair Jabborova gave us a huge information about the practice. Next day we met Tadjiyeva the head of our practice and she explained us what to do, as well as gave us themes for lesson plans.



During this practice I had to do 5 lesson plans on 5 themes. To be honest while I was doing these lesson plans, I came up lots of difficulties especially correcting my mistakes. At that time I went to the library and discuss with my groupmates. This process lasted exciting and so needful. While discussing and analyzing practice with my groupmates at the library we shared our ideas, knowledge and also helped ourselves. An addition to this we observed the lesson truly, it was not hard for me at all. Because of summer holiday, all of schools we not open so than we had to observe the lessons of “ Barkamol avlod” . Although the lessons were simple I learned some things from these and I got pleasure. In these lessons I watched mistakes and shortcomings then analyzed them thoughly. Furthermore, I learned fresh acturities for children. I beleive these observation give me a huge help when I have to teach at school

Also I should mention is that the best thing for me among the tasks of practice was writing critical review for an acticle. 1- Though I am aware of writing review, this process gave me another challenge. 2- before beginning this action I had to choose one article while this process, I looked though lots of educational ones. To be honest the process was of great interest and pleasure to me. The article I chose gave me many new things. Through it, I learned to analyze texts, and how to express my thoughts and comments on it.

You can not acheive success without any challenges. So I faces lots of challenges through the practice with hurdles came hidden strengths I discovered about myself. I had to go to the university library with my groupmates lots of times to gather necassary information belong to our tasks also analyze them. By this process we worked together. As everyone had their own point of view, many different ideas could be produced and the energy of group participation made me feel more energetic about doing something. To add this, I learned that good teamwork is the key to success in doing anything. Even the simplest things on earth could be turned into something amazing. If we put creativity and effort into working on our practice. From this practice, I increased my knowledge and developed all of skills. This practice made big impression on me from every side. I am sure it will be useful for me in my future occupation.
