iProject Day Six
28Nov 2006

My new team of English Innovian tutors(i transferred to another class) could not conduct outdoor lessons like my previous class, mainly due to the fact that they do not have a strong foundation in the language. So we continued teaching chapters after chapters like colours, animal objects etc. usual stuff

My previous class enjoyed the outdoor learning where they're suppose to use the camera(their first time) to snap shots of what they like n then form simple sentences. So for half of the session, they spend time outdoor. Here are some of the pics they took:



For the other half of the session, they played 'I got peace by the river'. They found it hard to concentrate on the hand actions, what more both the actions n the singing. However, they were all determined into getting everything right. special thanks to da wei who kept the guys engrossed n interested in the song. he made the kids shout on the second 'in my soul'. as a results, the guys became enthusiastic n keen in learning the song. thats a secret i found out.

iProject Day Five
27Nov 2006

I did a good deed by waking Winston, Da Wei, Hafeez, Arshad n You Ying in the morning =)

Unfortunately I didnt really enjoyed breakfast cuz its EXACTLY the same thing. guess they dunno how to vary.anyway construction at Tavan was great. We managed to flatten the entire ground surface by stepping, jumping and using bricks or the spade. But the thing i enjoyed the most is of course the teaching of English. The kids were so hyped up and active! so the lessons were really enjoyable especially when we played the games nd gave out prizes. Thank god we fought our way to teach for 2 more days cuz we're suppose to do a rotation where my group has to teach other kids arts n crafts and games. BUT we insisted on teahing them English. personally i juz wan the kids to have a good education. we already know their standard and wad has been taught. so to continue teaching them wud b easy. NOT that i dun wanna play sports or do arts n crafts.
besides, i think im kinda good at teaching English to them. an English teacher in the future?i dun really tink so esp wif the Olevel C6 grade i got..haha!

Anyway i got praised my Wen Chong today. He said I was an all-rounder. its a big deal to me cuz i have alwaes believed dat it is important n essential in being an all rounder. being praised, i think i have achieved what ive aimed. :) Now that appraisal has motivated me to enjoy and carry on with the CIP. You made my day wen chong!

oh let me share a photo.its actually a picture of a swing. except dat it is made of bamboo. yep yep.n its damn big lah! just look:


dinner at nature restaurant. me, hafeez, arshad n faris had springrolls n spaghetti. hafeez got 2 bread. he ordered garlic bread. first one wasnt, but 2nd one was.haha..2for the price of mann..anyway the spaghetti serving was little actuali..its close to wad u get in fine dining restaurants.

reflections:we claim teaching english was good.rue enuf. even the other class which wasnt active i the beginning became lively
