In particular, Apal Azamat kyzy, a student of group FLc-3-23, conducted an open lesson in Grade 7 "a" on the topic “At the Zoo.” During the lesson, students learned the names of zoo animals and acquired new English vocabulary related to the topic. The lesson effectively incorporated thematic flashcards and interactive activities.

Meanwhile, Begimai Karimova, a student of group FL-1-23, conducted an open lesson in Grade 5 "b" on the topic “Can You Play Hockey?” The lesson aimed to introduce new vocabulary related to different types of sports and develop students’ ability to ask and answer questions in English. During the lesson, the student used the “Popcorn” game, asking pupils questions about their ability to play different sports. This activity increased their interest and engagement in the lesson. As a result, the pupils learned new words and improved their listening comprehension and speaking skills in English.

At the end of the open lessons, the practice supervisor, A. B. Mambetalieva, and the school-appointed English language teacher, Zh. Yarkulova, evaluated the lessons and provided the students with methodological recommendations.

Such practical lessons contribute to enhancing the pedagogical skills of future teachers, enabling them to combine theoretical knowledge with practical experience and develop their professional competencies.
