WEEK 7 | 20 JUNE 2022 - 24 JUNE 2022 | CONTINUE SYLLABUS

 WEEK 7

For this week, I continued the lesson on Factors affecting the return on investment for real estate with Form 4. Students need to understand what are converse, inverse and contrapositive of an implication. Some students in my Form 4 class need extra time to properly understand the SCIC methods been introduced. A few examples were shown on board to increase their understanding.

For next day, I continued for topic Arguments. My Form 4 students seem to be excited on learning this topic since they were been introduced with the usage of credit card. They seems fascinated when I was explaining on the features of the credit card on board.

For Form 1 being introduced on SCIC methods and learnt what are inductive and deductive argument. Students need to explain in a group. It was a bit on a fast phase. This might be due to their class has not always being disturbed or fall into public holiday, hence they were able to continue lesson without being left behind. Then, they should be making notes. I instructed my students to do some note taking assignments. All in all, this week has been a very hectic and tiring day for me. 

With the multiprogram that would be held next week, students and teachers need to train for students and marching event. I immediately infected by fever and flu and its kinda affecting my focus in class. I felt very tired and did not have enough energy to properly teach the students. However, I still tried to do my best in order to deliver the content and ensuring that the students do understand what being taught.

WEEK 6 | 13 JUNE 2022 - 17 JUNE 2022 | PROCEEDING SYLLABUS

WEEK 5

For this week, I have plenty of time to prepare for my teaching materials. For Form 1 class, I selected Youtube videos about Cube and Square. The video summarized the whole chapter, so that students can recap back what they have learned before. 

While preparing for teaching and learning material for Form 5 class, I come across a reference book from senior teacher, which can be used to assist students understand the lesson better. Therefore, what I did was, to hide and delete all the answer written in the book using online PDF editor, before printing the exercises for 7 groups. During both class, I observed that these teaching assisting tools were very useful to keep students focus and understand the lesson better.

For Form 4, my objective is only to discuss last week revision exercises and summarized the lesson. Sadly at the beginning of the class, few students unable to complete the revision exercise given. Nevertheless, I proceeded with the discussion session, and students actively compare their own answer to the reference answer given. I asked students to calculate their total marks and evaluate their level of understanding. 

At the afternoon, I was involved in Kelab Catur for extacurricular activity, in which I assigned students to create one time-lapse video based on their creativity. The end result were so funny and interesting, and some students really shows excellent skill in taking picture and creating video!

WEEK 5 | 6 JUNE 2022 - 10 JUNE 2022 | SCHOOL BREAK

WEEK 4 | 30 MAY 2022 - 3 JUNE 2022 | GRAPHING

WEEK 4

For whole this week, before the class officially begin, I prepared the relevant and easy post learning exercises, by referring to the DSKP standard and textbook syllabus. This is because, I need to ensure the learning objectives is achieved, when students able to complete and answer the exercises correctly.  During the small group discussion, I observed that F1 students are able to search for the answer in the textbook and discussed them in group. Unlike last week, in which the students are distributed in group randomly, today groups were arranged by the students themselves, and probably because of compatibility factors, the lesson was delivered more effectively.

The teaching and learning session continued with F4 students. They were involved in hands on practical session in graphing. I have to demonstrated and drew the procedure to guide students in this session. At the end of the session, all group able to obtain accurate data and results, as stated in the textbook. I realized that through out this activity, because students observes the changes happen in their graph. They able to relate the finding with the lesson, and when I summarized the data, students able to understand the lesson better.

We recall on some of the important concepts and keywords (which they done with learning it last week) So I gave them homework to draw the graph (by copying every single detail in the textbook) with correct labels and checked during the next class. 

For Form 5 students, I start with some sharing on SPM 2021 result - how attitude towards studies correlate with their examination results. About 6 months left to SPM 2022 minus the holidays so they do not have much time actually to still play around and not focus in class. 

We recalled on syllabus and gave them formative test to be completed during class and discuss right away. Majority of the students struggle to think out of the box and relate the questions with the concept which they have learned. I had to remind them to do extra revision on the topic. I gave them manilla card/ Mahjong paper for them to prepare group presentation - one subtopic for each group. I asked them to do presentation because this chapter involve a lot of terms with specific examples and it requires reading and some research for them to understand better.

W: Many Formula
