Portefólio reflexivo sobre as práticas pedagógicas realizadas na Escola Comunitária 4 de Outubro

Abstract

This portfolio aims to present the physical conditions of the school, planning processes, language mediation, assessment processes, and the knowledge constructed during the learning process. During the internship, it became clear that the school faces some challenges regarding the conditions of some classrooms, such as damaged boards with holes, lack of doors, windows with broken glass, and a crack in the wall that separates two classrooms. These conditions, especially during storms and heavy rain, negatively influence the teaching and learning process. Planning was an important tool in the development of the biweekly plan and lesson planning for the success of the lessons, helping to avoid improvised lessons. However, there was a negative impact due to the lack of students, and not all of them had Portuguese subject books. Mediation, which was the phase of executing the lesson plans, proved crucial in the application of teaching methods such as: the expository method, joint elaboration, and independent work. These strategies contributed positively to the construction of knowledge. Furthermore, the students faced challenges in writing, but the main teacher would dictate notes, exercises, and corrections because the institution did not have chalk or erasers. This situation was inappropriate as a solution. After obtaining the necessary chalk and erasers, conditions were created to ensure the comfort of the students without obstacles during the lessons. Assessment proved to be an important tool in the teaching and learning process, as it allowed for the control and identification of the students' knowledge level, through continuous and formative assessments, while the summative assessment was prepared by the subject delegate. In conclusion, throughout the internship, this was the best experience in the teaching and learning process, as it allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge into pedagogical practice as a future educator.
