Comprehension Passage in class XI - Sunel (Eng. Dept.)

Teacher's reflections: Students are asked to understand an unseen passage and try to answer the questions on their own in the class. Students were distributed the passage and asked to complete answering the questions in 30 mins. I moved around the class and reached to the students who were struggling in understanding the passage and/or questions asked. I appreciated those who were doing well and extended support who were struggling. Next day I discussed the difficulties about understanding the passage and answering the questions and pointed the key elements of the passage. I also showed them their areas of struggles.

By doing this activity in class, it helped me in addressing the problems which students were facing with understanding the language. Students were also very interested in doing it in class. Next time if I was to conduct this in class I would do a Jigsaw or any group work where peer learning will be more effective.

Thank you for sharing this.
I am not entirely clear what principles of learning are being demonstrated in this lesson. If you could please elaborate, it would be helpful.
