Football anyone???

Azri and Azfar came in today with Manchester United Football Jerseys. I said hi and when I asked Azfar if MU won the game last night (it pays to read other people's profile in facebook!) he gave me the sweetest smile.

Upon hearing that Amreet who was seated right in front of me asked if I had watch the game last night. I said no. She then started to complain about how she had to endure the noise at her house. She complained both her brothers watched it together with her parents. She kept on and on about the screaming, yelling and the noise. It made me laugh....because, she's only 7.

I used to watch it almost every weekend.....not anymore!!!!!

Thank god it's Good Friday!

Last Friday, our Ms Admin was on leave and one of the assistant had to take an emergency leave. And I was having panic attack. I was thinking, how in the world could the 3 of us take care of the centre when it's the busiest day? We were suppose to get around 80 students between 4 to 8.

At the last minute, I decided to close my back area and directed all the students to use only the front area. 1 assistant took care of "plus and minus" and "Times and divide" students, while I took care of "fraction" + higher level maths + English + Kindy class! no no no....I didn't go crazy. In fact the class was smooth and can be considered quiet.

I later went back and slept like a log!!!

Bird Park Updates

To date, we have almost 30 ppl joining us for the ASHR Fun Day. Award Winners, their siblings, moms and even caretaker will be there. It's just going to be a fun day and our group will include 2 autistic students. At this point, I can't imagine what it's going to be like, but I know they're all excited and the other day, I heard 2 of them talking about it.

They had so many questions and wanted me to fill them up with answers.

Most of them can't wait for the "bus ride".

A new day for me

Today, after many months of heart ache and head ache with a certain staff, I feel like dark clouds have moved away from my windows. I feel the future is so bright, I had to wear shades...ok ok ... that was from a song. But I do feel like singing all day.

Instead, I rearranged the tables and made the classroom look better. And suddenly all the positive charges kept coming to me.

First, I made a rough calculation of my students' enrolment based on the recent report and I've passed the 200 marker! it's 205 to be exact!!!

Second, I'm no longer having to give someone an over rated salary, for the small amount of responsibility she was given.

Third, 100 % of my Higher Level Maths are Independent Learners, 70% of my FRACTION group are Learning to do things without much help and slowly, but surely, my TIMES and DIVIDE group will be trained by my staff to become independent learners as well.

I'm happy, but must try to get enough sleep.

A busy weekend

First I had the School Carnival. The students invited me for the 2nd time. I missed it last year. So this year i had to make time for it. It was a fun filled 2 hours. I saw so many of the old students and they all remembered me and didn't hesitate to say hello.

On Sunday.....I was invited to a "High School Musical" birthday party. I could not upload the video here. But when I can, I will. The children had so much fun with the funny clown. My friend Zailene organized it so well. Of course nothing less was expected from her.
