NUMBER OF JOURNAL :4

DATE : 21ST JANUARY 2024 – 25TH JANUARY 2024

TOPIC : TIME MANAGEMENT

1.0 FOCUSED ISSUE

The focused issue of this week is time management.

2.0 ANALYSIS

Involving this issue, time management is very crucial during the periods of
teaching and learning. Throughout my lessons for this week, although I have estimated
the time for every stage, still I always have problem closing my lesson because
students always could not finish the task on time. Its either the tasks provided were
too much or I was not aware of the difficulties of the tasks prepared that they could not
finish within time. On 22nd of January, I was observed by my mentor teacher for writing
class. The students seemed to have fun during the lesson and objectives were
achieved. Just the problem was I didn’t close my lesson. Thus, my mentor teacher
shared the ways I can use to close my lesson. It is because by hook or crook, the
lesson must or should be summarized and closed properly. Otherwise, the lesson
wouldn’t be as effective.

3.0 SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENTS

In order to cope with the issue of time management, there are courses of actions and
several ways that can be done:
• My time management should be improved. I should follow the time I have estimated
for every stage and make sure the activities I prepared are relevant to be done within
time.

4.0 PERIOD OF TIME TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE

5.0 REFLECTION

In conclusion, time management is very crucial in calling one’s lesson plan a

success. Good time management shows the credibility the teacher possesses to
control the journey of the lesson according to what have been planned. Hence, I will
work hard to enhance more on my time management skills by learning the proper
techniques and skills in order to have a smooth teaching and learning sessions for both
students and the teacher.
