Assalamualaikum,
At some point in life, people need to think on what they want to be and how are they going to achieve it. Last Saturday I went for a 3hours workshop on leadership, where the speaker keep on emphasizing on 'changes'. The world is evolving faster than you know and so should we! There are people who are trapped in their very own comfort zone and most of them are unfortunately not aware of it. Hopefully you are not one of them. Hopefully i'm NOT one of them~
Anyway, that's not my point.
Today i encountered a number of 'visible changes' in my big kids.
#1 - As a form teacher, I usually had a hard time asking them to line up early in the morning for the national anthem. Sometimes, I've to pull them all the way out of the room or even shout at them (self-explosion!) "haha" But today, I only have to say it twice~ and they were all lined up nicely. Hmmmm~
#2 - My level 2 class. They are those who have problems in understanding theories, calculations and concepts hence all I need to teach them is hands-on skill, based on projects and practicals. There's one kid in this class (W) who seems to have problem with me all the time but today is the only day he smiled at me and helped me with my work. There's another kid (R), who i consider a bully. He loves to bully his friends a lot! He once threw a stool and went out of my lab as if i weren't there. SHOCKING! He even did something worst than that which i don't think i wanna share.. Today, we talked about all the disciplinary problems he had executed one by one and I pleaded him to change. I think it works~ For the rest of the lesson, he sat quietly near me and completed all his work. *Alhamdulillah*
#3 - Its not easy to teach during the last two periods especially when my big kids have to walk from their class, which is on the second floor, to my Science lab at the ground floor of another block. Oddly, the kids were all at their best strength of mind and they managed to recall back ALL the important points from my last lesson. Besides, they were very "wholehearted" and So~ I had so much FUN teaching them... =)
