experience program in this semester was very great. I was happy and interesting
for it. I got SMA Muhammadiyah 03. Wow, that was long journey. I visited the
school during two weeks. I think, school experience program was a time that it
exhausted for me. I have to wake up early. It was 4’ clock in the morning then
I have to go home again in the evening. It needed a struggle hard.
At
first day, I can not sleep well. I was afraid that I overslept. Every day, I
have to go by public bus. I went to Blok M by bus 45 or bus 57 and then I went
to SMA Muh 03 by bus 72. I got a group with Susi, Imam, Mulyati, and Redyta. We
are from mathematics department and six students are from English department. In
this school, I met Mr Dwi who is mathematics teacher. I liked his style. He was
friendly with us. I have so many experiences in this program, especially how to
prepare and teach the students.
At
first week, I observed in Mr Dwi’s class. This school has three majors each
grade. They are SCI (Siswa Cerdas Istimewa), IPA, and IPS. First time, I
observed in SCI class to mathematics lesson. I went at 2002 classroom. It is
mathematics classroom. The school have regulation that the students have to
move in other room to get the new lesson. I arrived at the class on time but
the classroom was empty. Nobody students came in this class until ten minutes.
Mr Dwi and I waited them. Wow, that was wonderful. In my imagine, this class
consist of all clever students. Yup, I am right. They have ability that is more
than other class. They achieved the material fast and well. In this class,
there are only eleven students. Mr Dwi taught the students fast. He used the
lecturing methods. He explained the material for students and they drilled and
practiced the concepts.
The
second day, I observed in IPS class. It is X grade. As usual, I came the 2002
room early but nobody students came this room. I waited them until twenty
minutes. This class consist of sixteen students. I observed the teaching and
learning. In this opportunity, I got the differences of Mr Dwi’s attitude. Mr
Dwi was harder than when he taught the SCI class. But it is OK. I think, Mr Dwi
can adapt his self in the class. I liked it. When the students were doing the
assignment, one of them came me and she asked how to solve the problem. I
helped her but sometimes she did not understand. I tried hard to deliver the
material until she understood. I gave the simple statement to get the answer
but she was confused. Finally, she understood too. Oh God, it is very difficult
to me. I need study hard again to deliver the material that they have ability
are different each students.
Susi
and I discussed that the Statistic topic of mini research. We focused SCI
class. It means we have to teach SCI class in next week. Okay, I am ready. On
Monday in second week, I will teach SCI class by my self because Susi gets DI
school. Finally, I got Sunday so I have to prepare well. I did not sleep in
evening of Sunday. I prepared the material that on Monday, I deliver to
students. I also made visual aid that was material from Mr Dwi. I struggled
hard. I want to teach well.
But
I got a problem on Monday. I discussed with Mr Dwi about the material but
suddenly Mr Dwi gave the new material to SCI class. Oh God. I was very sad. I
explained Mr Dwi that I have to prepare all of first material but Mr Dwi asked
me to teach other material? In my heart, I said, “Oh God. I prepared it well. I
also made a visual aid; I did not sleep in last evening. I have to study hard
and I took many books. It is just to teach the students. But now, Mr Dwi
cancelled me to teach?” I was very sad but it was Ok. I was aware. My struggle
was a great experience. I think, one day when I am teacher, I will get so many
problem. Finally, I observed the Mr Dwi class again. I helped Mr Dwi to teach
SCI class. I was happy although I was disappointed.
In
next day, Mr Dwi was sick so we have to teach his class. Susi and I taught the
SCI class. We prepared well. Actually, this class was suitable with our plan. I
was happy for that. We had lecturing for the material and then we had a
competition between groups. The students paid attention for us. They liked the
methods that we used. I was happy to hear it. They also understood the material
that I delivered to them.
In
next session, I got IPS class. But we did not prepare because Mr Dwi did not
give information before now. Susi and I were in 2002 class suddenly, student
came and said “Miss, where is Mr Dwi?”
I
answered, “Mr Dwi is sick. Is there problem?”
She
said, “IPS class is later. We want to go home so we just have forty minutes to
join this class.”
Susi
answered, “We have eighty minutes to mathematics class. Okay.”
Student
added, ”Usually Mr Dwi just teach us until forty minutes.” Finally, they went
out classroom. I though that they did not liked mathematics class. I did not
know it. Eighty minutes will be forty minutes. It was very big problem. But
Susi and I tried IPS class.
In IPS class, it was very
disappointed. They came late twenty minutes. They did not have motivation to
study mathematics. They were noisy. They ate together in front of room. Oh No.
I wanted to surrender but it was reality show. “You must try, Dian. You will
find other problem in next day so you must solve the problem,” said my mind.
Finally, we only gave some question for them. I gathered their answer until
twenty minutes because they pushed us to finish the lesson. It was unhappy. I
hope it will not happen again.
In next day, I helped Imam to teach
IPA class. He prepared well. In Imam’s class, I found the new experience. The
lesson was very great. The students enjoyed the lesson and they were happy.
Imam explained the material well and clearly. Sometimes students did not understand
so I helped them to understand the material. I liked this class.
Then on Thursday, I did not come at
SMA Muhammadiyah 03, I visited DI school. I helped Susi to prepare the lesson
in last evening. She taught SCI class by herself. It was Okay. I hope she will
be better.
DI school, I visited SDLB Tri Asih
Jakarta. I got so many experiences. We have to go early. We used busway to
Slipi and then we took a ride Kopaja 16 to go school. We came the school on
time. I met new friends. First
time, I came here; I was confused because the students were different. Yup,
they are “Tuna Grahita” students but they were good. They are friendly. I liked
them. Although they were different but they had a great motivation. They
accosted us and acquainted with us. They also had a new ability. They divided
by some group. They were “Grahita berat” in panti, school and shop. I saw a
shop. It was to old people. They made cloth from thread. Wow, it is great,
right? They can make a cloth and the result is very good.
Then, I visited the school. They had
elementary school, Junior high school, and Senior high school. I met many
children in elementary school. They had gymnastics before they entered the
classroom. It was leaded by headmaster. It is fantastic. I found new
confortable. They cared other people. The teachers gave love and attention for
their students. I appreciated them. Then, I entered classroom grade IIIA. In
here, there are 5 students and one new student. They are Marya, Edbert, Roni,
Dino, Remon, and a new student is Rafail. I liked them. They had peculiarity. I
introduced my self and in this day, I wanted to know them deeper again. I met a
student that I amazed him. His name is Edbert. If we saw him, we found him as
normal child. He is handsome and clever. Teacher said that he is a kid with autism but he
is a great student. He can know a day in date without saw the calendar. For
example, 23 February 2013 is … He can answer it is Saturday without saw the
calendar. It is very great. I think he is gifted student. I ever asked his
teacher, “Is there formula for it?” the teacher answered, ”Yes, there is but I
do not know. Nobody knows it except him.” Wow, it is Godsend. I hope, I can
meet him again. He liked to see label. He remembered the advertisement of
product too. The teacher said, “Edbert liked label because in his memorize that
anything must have a label. He interest with anything that have a word.”
I
also amazed Rafail. He likeds to say “Dog”. He said that the teacher is dog but
it is okay. The teacher laughed to hear it. They assumed that in Rafail’s
memorize is dog. May be he likeds to watch the dog film. He usually said or
sang a song with the keyword is dog. The teacher asked him to draw a dog in a
paper. And the result was very amazed. His picture was perfect and very good liked
the picture of a normal people. I think, I did not make a picture liked Rafail.
It was great job. They are a special need that had an amazed ability.
I
liked the teacher’s methods to teach them. They were very care and patient.
They used a differentiated instruction for their students. They gave a rule if
the students done a mistake. I appreciated the teachers.
I
studied many things from them. I was really happy in this school experience
program. I am more appreciating what are the differences between us. I hope the
school experience program in next semester more fantastic again. Thank you God.
It is my great experiences. Thank you for your attention. ^_^
