That was where I spent my 10 long days to begin with .. Well I am such a kaypoh and I just can't sit still .. Actually I signed up for the SEED Programme , organized by the Scholastic people and I know for a fact that this will definately be a boring post , but who cares anyway right ?
As long as I blog .. So let me begin from the beginning , we received the training brochure early and somewhere and I actually forgot ... but never mind .. I was telling a friend of mine how good it would be if I just signed up for the SEED Programme for 10 whole days and at the end of this block training , I will receive a certificate .
My friend .. agreed to go with me . God bless her . Because I was actually lonely and I hate to be alone in a room full of other stranger teachers . At this point we still do not know the meaning of the SEED programme but we went anyway ....
We talked about it and we were saying to each other that this might just be for us because we felt a bit lagged .... so maybe .. just maybe it would turn out to be a refreshers course or something and yes we would get to pick out some usefull tips for the class ..
As on day one ,as we got there , .. we were so rajin ... we parked the cars at the KTM Sungai Buloh and made our way towards Central K.L. For me it was like one huge lesson in life as I have never used that mode of transport .
I was excited , new journey and all .. even in the rain , we rolled up our jeans , bought the ticket just to get there .. day one finally seeped into day five and I tell you , I hit the sack like a log . It was a toll on both of us ..
We hung on .. we learned , we processed every data that we could into the brain . It was so fine until.............................
We noticed that there were these group of people , you see they were so smart .. they get in at 9 am .. mark the attendance for the day ... stay up to 11 am and then after lunch , you just don't see them .. one had the nerve to even go back halfway during a group presentation and they just went ....
I mean , we were like , come on , we come as far as Shah Alam , in the rain , not a minute late , always on time , ever ready to learn and here ,we get this ? .... so with this kind of attitude .... okay I do not have to say more ...
Consider this ;
Quality teachers , quality teaching , quality time .
As far as I am concerned I want to be a quality , teacher , to teach with quality and use quality time to teach... okay I am rambling on ..... again another question to ponder ;
Would I hire teachers who do not possses any of what I have just mentioned ?
The answer to that will be ; NOPE , in a hearbeat ...
And NOPE begins with the letter N and the phonic sound for the letter N is nnnnnn . Okay now you try to say it nnnnnnnnnnn , nnnnnn , NOPE .. see you're getting it right ... now let's try to segment the sound .. N/O/P/E .
Do you know other words that begin with the letter N , ...nnnnn .
Very good .
What is SEED .. it is simply . Scholastic Early English Develpoment .. see we are good ....
From the seed , it grows into a beautiful plant with buds and flowers and strong roots .. beautiful .
