Quizlet: Playing and Learning

Being a teacher sometimes is a hard and stressful job. There are many things that make the work hard, for example: making sheet works, watched by the supervisors, having uncooperative co-workers, dealing naughty students, etc.
Other that, dealing the class is not an easy job either. To make students cooperative with you could be a hard thing to do. Especially, the student did not take any interest in the subject. They would play with each other, busy by themselves, not pay attention, and disturb the class.
We all, of course, have been a student before, and we all know it is hard to focus on the subjects that we didn't like. We will do other else to keep us busy or not bored. At the end, we would not understand anything about the subject and get a bad score in the test.
I know that all of this back to the student themselves, but being a teacher we also can help the student focus to the subjects by make the class fun or show something interesting that steal the student’s focus. How we do that?
It's turn out there so many things that can help you make your class more fun. One of them is Quizlet. So what is Quizlet?
From Wikipedia, Quizlet is a mobile & web-based study application which trains students via flashcards and various games and tests. You read it right! Flashcard! What do you think that flashcard is boring and out to date? Well it is mean that you have not use Quizlet.

  2. Hello again Jovita! When I tried your quiz I felt like I went back to my childhood memories. I was so curious about my teacher explanation so I decided to catch a frog and brought it home to be observed. I put it in the aquarium then it escaped to my bathroom and stay there until the next day my parents found out LOL. I love animals and your quiz is super fun and give me nostalgic moments. Love how you give the explanation of each animals, long but understandable .

Teaching using Nearpod

I do my first teaching experience last week. I used Nearpod as my application of teaching. The lesson is about Capital letter and apostrophe. Capital letter and apostrophe are very important in writing, without them a writing could be confusing. My lesson is for 5th grade. Even though that capital letter and apostrophe sound easy, it's turn out that people still got confused about it. For example, for capital letter, you should be capitalized every planets' names, but not for sun, earth, and moon, but you should capitalize it if it has "The" at the in front.Without the capital letter, it could be confusing for the reader. For example, surnames that have other meaning, like Brown, Lake, etc. For apostrophe, words that have -s/-es at the end of the word usually have plural meaning. Apostrophe also puts -'s to show that something belongs to someone. So, for example, a word like "Boys", it a plural form of "Boy". To show that the "Boys...

Flipped Classroom

Hai, everyone! Have you heard about flipped classroom? A flipped classroom is a technique which teachers, mostly outside Indonesia, used to teach their children. Like its name, it is contrasted from Indonesian classroom do where students learned the subjects at school and do the assignment at home, but flipped classroom students learn the subject and got the assignment at home by video, and do the assignment at school. It is not common at Indonesia school, so probably many of you never experience it. Neither do I. To be honest, I don't know if flipped classroom will effective at Indonesia schools. It mostly because students will have a hard time to customize with the new teaching, but it would possible for elementary students, which mean should be applied to new students. It sure makes teacher's job easier and hard at the same time. It easier because they don't need to explain it again at school or students has something to do when they didn't come, but also it mak...
