Micro Teaching: Active and Passive Voice

By

    In micro-teaching session, I explored the concept of Active and Passive Voice, a key area in English grammar that helps learners understand sentence structure and verb usage more clearly.


What is Active Voice?

In an active voice sentence, the subject performs the action.

Structure: Subject + Verb + Object

Examples:

The cow eats grass.

He eats a mango.


What is Passive Voice?

In passive voice, the subject receives the action. The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.

Let’s see how different tenses transform from active to passive:


1. Simple Present:

Active: He eats a mango.

Passive: A mango is eaten by him.


2. Present Continuous:

Active: He is eating a mango.

Passive: A mango is being eaten by him.


3. Present Perfect:

Active: He has eaten a mango.

Passive: A mango has been eaten by him.


This activity helped students recognize how the subject and object switch places, and how helping verbs change based on the tense.

Criticism Class: Walk Alone

     On 10th February 2025, I conducted a criticism class on the poem “Walk Alone” by Rabindranath Tagore as part of my teacher training practice. This poem, originally written in Bengali as “Ekla Chalo Re”, was analyzed from a critical and literary perspective, focusing on its thematic depth, poetic devices, and cultural context. "Walking alone" serves as a symbol of non-conformity and personal strength. It encourages one to act rightly even in isolation. The session encouraged students to appreciate not just the poem’s message, but also the techniques and socio-political context that shape its literary importance.
