Gratitude Challenge: Day 26

I am grateful of:
a) the good comments from my lecturer. She came for Jerry's and also did my post observation. She said my lesson on Monday was definitely better than my first lesson. There was improvement. :D She did not reveal my marks though but it should be higher than the previous marks! Just hope that all goes well at my GP part.
b) Li Teng's pens. She gave me two pens when I just asked to borrow one from her.
c) the time in the evening spent watching movies with him while sorting the exam papers. Felt good!
d) the sharing of conversation after school. :D
e) mum's updates on what is happening at home.

Gratitude Challenge: Day 25

Things that I'm grateful of today:
a) I did not get as many relief classes as I should as I did not have any classes on that day and many teachers were not in.
b) got to save money as there was food in the staffroom
c) got to try a new café which serves cheap pizza. Well, it was not as good but the new environment felt good.

Grateful:
a) that my lesson was not postponed to another day like what Jerry's was.
b) was not asked about my action research as there wasn't time to discuss after the class
c) lesson went on quite ok except the ending part. But overall, I guess it's still okay.
d) GP entered for observation too making this observation a 2 in 1 observation. Don't have to be observed the second time by GP anymore.

Gratitude Challenge Day 14

I am grateful of:
A) the safe journey home! I think I was quite reckless when driving home just now. Lack of practice I think. 
B) mum's food and support! Feels right at home.
C) my dog's warm welcome. Kept licking my legs when I entered house. Hehe.
D) the relief time I had with 2I. One of them wrote "老师,我爱你!". Played quiz with them because they requested. So I played even though I was feeling so sleepy! Haha. Made time passed faster though.

Gratitude Challenge Day 13

I have been busy for the past two days. On Wednesday, I got to know that the teacher wants to observe my form 1 class instead of form 4. I had koko day on that day too so by the time I reached home, it was already 5:45pm. So, I had to prepare an observation lesson plan in a night! Okay there are three things that I'm grateful of that day:

A) the students in my observed class cooperated well. I really appreciate it!
B) I have finished the first GP observation and now I'm officially 50% through my Practicum. Despite everything that happened with the teacher on that day too, I will not let it ruin my holiday mood! She had already destroyed my sept holiday mood, I don't want her to ruin this short holiday too.
C) the time I had to wind down by watching movie while creating lesson plan. Hehe.

Gratitude Challenge Day 12

I got to know that the teacher wants to observe my form 1 class instead of form 4. I had koko day on today so by the time I reached home, it was already 5:45pm. So, I had to prepare an observation lesson plan in a night! Okay there are three things that I'm grateful of though:

A) sound advice given by him because he knows that it is for my own good even though he knows I will not like it. 
B) able to arrive before 7:30 even though we departed very late to school today. 
C) one student who defended me in front of his friends. He admitted it is him the one who suggested something when others were blaming me for it. Haha. What a nice boy, sometimes. 
D) he gave me his materials he had planned for his class. The materials that he couldn't use during observation because they are not needed. That had greatly sped up my planning. If not, I don't think I could sleep that night! 
E) he played songs for me to serenade me when I was stressing out. Lol!
