Bloom’s Application:

When we start a chapter students need to have prior information for which we brainstorm them. That is Remembering. Then we make them understand the new chapter that is understanding. We discuss how can it be applied in daily life that is applying the newly learned concept. Then different questioning is done from their side to analyze are they getting what we basically want from them. Then we evaluate them by testing them. Now we ask questions. Then they put into practice what they have learnt in their daily life. A sample is placed in my instructional lesson plan.

Appendix 3:

Appendix 4:ABCD of behaviorLevel A: A for Anarchy

Anarchy is the lowest level of behavior. The word comes from Greek and literally means “without rule”. This level refers to absence of government,

aimlessness and chaos.e.g fighting in the class, not raising hand while answering, etc.

Level B: B for BullyingBullying is the level after anarchy. A student behaving at this level violates

the courtesies of class operations and accepted standards. The bully attempts to become the ruler by making rules. We make our biggest mistake

in not understanding the nature of the bully. If bullying prevails, irresponsible and provocative (aggressive) behavior will be repeated. e.g to

boss or tease others, throwing rubber on each other, etcLevel C: C for Conformity

Conformity is the next level of behavior and is as essential for classroom decorum as it is for a civil society. No society can exists without some

measure of conformity. The term means complying )obeying (to cooperate with expected standards.

The key concept of Level C is that the motivation is external. The motivation comes because someone is monitoring, not on their own.

e.g class is quiet due to the teacher’s presence.Level D: D for Democracy

Democracy is the highest level of behavior development, at this level motivation to be responsible is internal.

e.g class is quiet even in the teacher’s absence knowing the classroom norms.
