Two teachers had a word with me because I shouted too loudly at my boisterous class, thus affecting the learning of their peers in the classroom beside me. Oops. Promptly marched my class to the Indoor Sports Hall during the next Sci lesson so that I could teach via a modified dog-and-bone game. I think my creative juices are gonna have to work overtime this term if I have to keep steering this Foundation Science class away from other classes, haha

I can conclude that the nice thing about teaching primary school kids is that they have no hang-ups and little defenses about them. Despite shouting at them occasionally, students from both classes came up to me this afternoon, asking why I wasn’t in school earlier and making small talk in general. That’s swell. I would have thought that they would want to dissociate themselves from me.

Spent the co-curricular activity filing papers for my Foundation Science class and derived a glorious and instant sense of satisfaction. I wasn’t just going about it mindlessly. I now have a better understanding of their proficiency because I got to know the students who have yet to complete a multitude of worksheets. It isn’t a task that I enjoy doing, but it yields a disproportionate amount of gratification once I cross it off my to-do list.
