Goodbye assignment 2!!! Hehee.. I actually completed it yesterday only. Hehehee.. Shame on me!~ I try my best not to do last minute work again. Hm.. Anyway, about the second assignment.. Manipulating and Assessing Videos for the ESL Classroom. I found out that there are many interesting videos from youtube that can be used in ESL classroom. Try browsing this author: peterweatherall. "Most of Peter`s music is for children and has educational themes. He makes the TV shows: Penguin TV and Jumping Jellybeans, broadcast in New Zealand and Australia" (www.youtube.com) So, I think, for dear readers who are teachers or teachers-to-be, you should subscribe to this author.
Welcome assignment 3!!! We were given our third assignment today. My topic is Story Time: Year 2. Hm.. Now, I need to find some group mates.. Earlier on, maam has ordered us to do a task on lesson planning and the four main skills - listening, speaking, reading and writing. Thanks to that, I feel that this assignment would not be such a burden to me. I think that I can really give all out and show what I am capable of. Hehee.. So boastful.. But actually, it's true. I finally realize why maam kept on bombarding us with tonnes and tonnes of weekly tasks. It is for us to learn and to prepare us in doing our assignments. It really, really helped and helps a lot.
Next, we were required to use the Microsoft Office Publisher to create name cards, posters, pamphlets, book cover and newsletter. It was very interesting. I never had the chance to use this application (or is it software?) before and now, maam has given me the opportunity to try and manipulate this software. And, guess what? It is really fun! And, as I mentioned before, subjects taught are always related to each other. What I'm trying to say is, what maam has taught me in this subject helps me in other subjects. I need to do a poster in my EL subject - Gender dan Pekerjaan. Now that I know how to use Microsoft Office Publisher, the task would be easier! Yey!!! Never realized such useful and interesting software is there, hibernating in my laptop.. Huh.. Thanks to its techno-freak master..
Hm.. Talking about my laptop.. Uhuhuu.. My DVD drive is broken.. Hm, these kind of whining should not be in this blog, isn't it? Sorry.. I'm just so depressed.. No money to repair.. Uhuhuu..
Well, I guess I'll stop here..
