Give your pupil a chance

This happened last week. I name the pupil as M. M is a very talkative, hyperactive and mischievous pupils in class. He seemed to be uncomfortable of being comfortable. Meaning, he could not sit quietly when everybody else sits quietly and happily doing their worksheet. He might be walking, talking, disturbing, suddenly screaming in class in order I believe to get attention. From who? Peers, me, or just being silly.. I simply don't know.

Once I asked him to stand at the back of the class, which I believe standing punishment will never benefit the pupil or efficient for them. Since I was kinda pissed off, I ordered him to stand at the back of the class to give me time to think the best psychological punishment for this brat!!!

I thought he maybe the hyperactive pupil in class. Thus, I asked him to be my assistant of the day just to keep him busy and stop disturbing other pupils. He happily put up the teaching aids, help me write down correct answer on the white board, clean the white board, distributes worksheet, and so on. He cheerfully made himself busy with the chores given. The satisfaction on this child glowing face really soften my heart and anger.

Til the end of the lesson, his behaviour impressed me. Wow, this really work...so people, do not give inlogical or inefficient punishment to children. Give them something they can learn from in form of responsibility, team work, moral values and you know others.....

Sentence of the day from M....Teacher, lain kali teacher panggil saya jadi assistant saya lagi ye....

My GOD!!!!! Sejuk sgt hati ni..... (keibuan tak? OMGoddddddd!)

Bila effort anda dibalas kosong

Hari yg sedih. Sangat dan amatlah sedih bila effort yg anda lakukan dibalas dengan xde ape...

bukan balasan yg nak2 sangat...tapi cukup kalau org itu lakukan yang sama, effort yg sama...

tp org ni berbeza2, mungkin objektif antara aku dan org itu berbeza....

Sedih....

Rasa nak nangis plak luahkan perasaan dalam blog gini....

Dengarlah doniaaaa......aku sedih.....sedih sangat2...hidup ini xlama, bila aku buat sesuatu atau nakkan sesuatu...I'll work for it....

Frustration....help me...

It has been two weeks of practicum. It has been a fun journey despite of the late night sleep and adorable pupils trying to get your attention in class.

BUT..there's the BIG BUT... I still can't stand the last class I'm given..worse....my lecturer is coming and he really wanted to see me handle this class...

I said, "Sir, please not that class. I enter once a week only. Why don't you come to see my other class (the third class)?"

He simply refused. God! Help me...give me some strength and best way to tackle this children.

He added, "If you can handle this class, you pass with excellent, if not I give you fail."

I felt that my heart dropped to the floor...kelepuunggg.....

Let's see what have I done to them...

I played video clips about TIME... they didn't understand at all but still watch the video quietly...

Once I taught them about AM and PM... they started to have chit chat, play with their friends, ajuk cakap aku.....perghhhhh...menyirap....sabar sabar sabar...

Then, for the development I divided them into groups....quite ok, although there were pupils playing and gochoh (fighting & kicking) with each other....during the simulation, hmmmm they were quiet and responding, walaupun jawapan mereka kebanyakannya salah...

Second class....

My teaching was more like story telling or discussion... I gather them to sit in front of the class (all 15 of them) and started to tell stories about time and how to tell time...amazingly, they were all focus and can sit quietly...

when i asked them to go back to their place and gave worksheet to each of them....voala....they all started running here and there....

I asked them to do the homework..but then....you know already...they just couldn't be bothered...

Then...... I SHOUT....hoho...yes, shout.... they were stunned and sit quietly... I cannot do this often, it's not professional..... and against my principal of "STRICT but NOT MEAN"....

Each time I went out, I felt a big frustration in my heart. I believe everybody deserves to learn, educate, and taste success in life. I believe this pupils deserve at least a litle success to make them motivated to move on in life.

I learnt about this pupils background, they came from very problematic family with drug addict father and lunatic mother, divorced parents, poor and so much of factors that cause them became like that.

My sympathy to them was undescribable...I know.. these children were born equal with others....their brains are equally good as others...but...what make their brains slow and not like others? I'm here to solve that as a teacher...at least, they need to learn something a little a day...

My prayers that God gives me strength to help these children and avoid any negative vibes in me... Amin....

Please pray for me and these kids...
