Failure Failure and Failure

Talking about failure is somehow hard and easy, competitive and supportive. Once I remember sad and happy memories. I learn from both, when I succeed I learn and when I fail and succeed. Both have positive feeling in terms of curiosity and creativity. One day I prepared a lesson plan and when I tried to go and teach applying and following the steps of my lesson plan, I failed in following the same procedures. The students got confused. I felt sad and disappointed not about my performance but about the students because they don't understand my lesson. After I finished my lesson I asked myself what went wrong. Is it me who ruin the lesson and lesson plan or the students, or the way I used to present my lesson? I kept asking myself lots of questions. Curiosity, creativity and play took place. I planned my lesson again and I tried to put games and used some tools to make the lesson interesting. I integrated technology in my lesson plan so the students got the idea of the lesson and felt interested during the lesson and showed my that they are eager to learn. Thank you failure and success because I got inspired from my act from my failure.
