1 GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR TEACHING
PRACTICE PERIOD
Dear Prospective Teacher
All B.Ed. (Intermediate Phase) student teachers must prepare and teach 25 or more lessons during
the teaching practice period. Three of the 25 lessons must be planned and be written in the space
provided in this portfolio. They must be presented in the presence of a mentor teacher. One (extra)
lesson must be presented in the presence of the supervisor. Complete the three declaration
forms after teaching the three lessons during the compulsory five-week period of teaching
practice. Your mentor teacher must complete assessment of lesson presentation, write the
comments, sign and put the school stamp in the section dedicated to him or her. Submit your
portfolio immediately when you are done before the closing date.
Teaching practice is a compulsory requirement for the B.Ed. programme. If Assessment
3 ( 50), (provided in this tutorial letter) with the relevant content has not been
submitted, marked and passed, the degree will not be awarded to you.
Best
wishes

1.2 SOME TIPS FOR SURVIVAL
• Be thoroughly professional. Your way of dressing and punctuality are important
throughout the teaching practice period.
• Do not be late for meetings and classes.
• You should not chew gum or attend to your cellphone while you teach.
• Ask your mentor teacher where you should sit during breaks, where to park your car
and so on.
• Generally (there are exceptions) you should stand while you teach in order to show the
learners that you are in control and committed to working hard; this sets a good
example and tone for your lesson.
• Move around the class while the learners are working. It will keep them focused while
the shy ones will be able to get your attention more easily. It will also assist you in
stopping any disruptions. You will also be able to see if the learners are able to do the
activity you set for them.
