For the problem solving, I used various property such as pictures, animation and song to present my materials. Because students in primary school would get easier to understand the topic with the pictures that they have seen before such as a picture of rainy season (the weather topic for class 4). After that, I divided students into 4 groups. Then, I asked them to answer my question about the topic that I have taught. It is a kind of summarize or review the topic.

For the class 5, I also divided them into 4 groups. Then, I asked them to color a series of pictures then give the correct label of the pictures.

6.   SUMMARY AND SUGGESTIONS

6.1  Purpose of Practicum

The purposes of the practicum are to develop my teaching skill and pedagogy, to practice my English skill, to be social human in every diversity, gain the broader and world view. i was very lucky to be part of this great program. Through this program, I learnt many lesson that I will no found if I was not joining this program. I learnt to respect every diversity, learnt how to be a social person. And I can meet great people that I will miss when I'm in home later.

 6.2   Procedure of Practicum

Procedure of practicum is the process to run our plan in teaching like doing preliminary such as greetings, preparing the students study, innovating media related to the topics, giving motivations, dividing into groups and giving worksheet. I stimulated the students by introducing the topic through song (The Weather Topic for class 4) then continued to the topic. For the problem statements are:

a. Do the students can identify the season in Thailand?

b. Do the students can identify the ASEAN country?

Students understand the topics that had been taught. They can answer the question well. Students asked the thing they do not really understand.

Students discussed with their group about the answer of the quiz. After they got the answer, the asked their tag number as I gave before doing the exercise. Then, I asked them to conclude the topic based on the answer of the questions. Each group had opportunity to answer the question and got point. Students had chance to ask thing that did not clear. At the end of exercise, the group who got many points gave a gift from the students. At the end of class, teacher concluded the topic and collected the students’ tasks. Teacher end the class with greeting. I follow every steps in my lesson plan.

 6.3 Outcomes of Practicum

My outcomes of practicum is good but not perfect. I tried my best during the teaching practice. My kind supervisor gave very good advice for my teaching future.

6.4 The Challenge of Practicum

       During this program, I got many confused things like language.When I want to buy something in market, I need to use gesture to make them understand what I mean. And it's happened when I teach in class. Beside gesture, I Used my properties to provide my teaching practice. Sometimes I was homesick also but I motivated myself for be strong during the practicum. About the foods, as long as it allow by my religion I can consume it just said "Bismillah". I found many things that funny but priceless. Hopefully, I can come back again.
