Students who are guilty of plagiarism will forfeit all credit for the work concerned. Plagiarism is a serious violation of

As a side note to my lecturer and tutors, my teaching practical’s and
observations were done under strict COVID-19 procedures where the
correct measures were taken (sanitizing of hands, wearing a face mask,
social distancing from the students and have the students kept in
designated seating). Despite all of this, I tried my absolute best to go about
with the normal and general teaching practical rules and have been blessed
enough to be allowed to do my teaching practice at Scienza Academy (a
small private high school of less than 100 students where they can classify
themselves as a “business” and commence with their teachings).
DAY 1 GENERAL OBSERVATION
Date of observation: 20 July 2020 Grades: 10-12
School Enrolment: 3rd term - Boys: 28 Girls: 25
Respond to questions and provide explanations for question 3 and from 14 to 20.
Scienza Academy school has been allowed to open its doors to the students despite the
COVID-19 pandemic schools rules, as the school falls below 100 students and has been
considered as a business. All safety precautions and procedures have been dealt with
responsibly and with caution and as the school does attain a smaller amount of learners, it is
easier to maintain and manage these new rules.
