over here all the students have to clean the school everyday.. every morning and every afternoon, students are assigned to an area... some have to clean their homerooms, some the library, yard, teachers room, mop the hallways, wipe the stairs and windows etc.. its pretty good cos it saves them on hiring cleaners! their classrooms get messy eevry single day.. they rip up their workbooks and notebooks and theres always paper and dirt/dust everywhere! most of the time they dont actually clean.. when i walk around i just see them standing there with a mop killing time until they're allowed to go home.. hahaha they're funny.
Anyways moving along.. teaching has been ok lately.. im getting the hang of it and getting to know most of the students well .. i know their levels so i know who to help and what kind of work to give them... they have the attention span of an ant so you always have to find things that can motivate them to do work... elementary u can sing songs and dance with them .. but can u imagine my yr 9s singing and dancing? i dont think so.. they think they're too 'cool' for that. hahaha
most ppl say that the first 2 months were like hell cos they were put into a school with no teaching experience and are just expected to know what to do ... i went through the same but its not as bad as everyone said.. if the first 2 months are meant to be bad then i guess im doing very well cos im not having much trouble lately with them.. they seem to enjoy my class and they're well behaved. Some teachers warn me that this class and that class are very noisy and naughty but i dont see it so i guess im doing a good job =)
