there are 2 possibilities

cy把我的cardboard弄跌了,后又闹脾气,躲在playhouse一角。
we continued our art and craft without her. At first, i tried to pujuk her to do the arts, but she was still in her mood. “让她吧,不用理她; 过一会儿她就会自己过去的。”
Yes, indeed. After she saw her friends with their incredible art works, she was coming for her art and craft:)

but, sometimes, ignorance just won't work. children like wh need to pujuk,even he did wrong. He need attention.

Different children, different possibilities.

我其实是气自己

今天我又生气了。其实是气自己,可是, 都发泄在无辜的小孩身上。
我气自己为什么没有好好思考反省自己的教学方式,到底哪里出了问题;为什么孩子就是毫无所得?教了与未教的无异,他们也不知道他们读的是什么,学了些什么。
其实心里很难过,怎么我的用心,只看到呆呆的眼神、和心不在焉的孩子们??

放弃了?

我不是个称职的好老师。因为我想放弃他-cx。
cx恐怕有学习障碍,读字卡还行,读书就有困难了。我不晓得为什么:同一个字,字卡-认得出;课本却很困难。 华语还可以;国语却真的很糟糕。sukukata是会的;却不能读出整个perkataan来。
读书要他命; 玩却可以忘形。 哀。

Feb 24 - 就是爱你

“就是爱你” - 那种感觉。
wh一闹情绪,就会往桌底下躺。
平时,我用‘软’的:他都会听我的。
这次劝了好几次,他还是无动于衷; 我来硬的了:藤鞭!
我鞭了,他哭了。
没料到,过没多久, 他不但没生我的气,且又粘着我了。
他知道,我疼他哦^^

3 years old conversation

rubenesh is indian background; hx is chinese background.
The floor is wet, it was raining.
they know not to step and run on the wet floor...
rubenesh: (pointing the wet floor)"bong, bong." [meaning that stepping outside might fall down.]
hx: "no, no." [then he told in chinese: can not go out, you will fall down.]

simple shaker

"why are u doing this?" a friend asked me when i was working 'hard' to do the simple shakers.
Today is the 1st time they tired the shakers. they were having fun, just as i thought.
Sometimes, a simple toy is enough to lights up their lives.

Feb 18 - everytime she cries during my lesson

hr is new.
it's ok if u dono, even u don't understand. Just ask, and study harder.
i need u to open your mouth, open your mind for me.
cry won't help, it'll worsen the situation.
i try my best not to yell at u, not to scold u, not to be angry with u. but your 'keep on' crying makes me almost burst out.
Pls, stop crying next time; we'll try harder together, i'll be along your side, dear; u'll get through it; u'll be getting better de. trust in you, trust in me:)

they r just fine:)

morning, they saw me, seems like they r in need of me: 1 holding my left hand, another on my right, one more in front of me.
back to class, we read ABC(i assisted). in a sudden, principal called; the moment i left the room, i heard the 2 'babies' cried, but i have to go...
back from business, teacher said they were doing well without me. they colored, they read, they write;)

Feb 16 - 今天我大开‘鞭’戒!

自上年头反省懊悔反省懊悔后,我都尽量不拿藤鞭鞭人了,今天,拿起藤鞭鞭人,是真的为了要给他们一次刻骨的教训。
yl的每本练习簿子给他们胡画,她不但没阻止,还一起‘加入’乱画一番。
齐齐几人玩啊、画啊、说啊、笑啊,就是功课langsung没有动过。
不是第一次了,是每次! 每次!! 每次,如果有我在,就会边偷偷玩、给我骂了、喊了,就才‘推一次,做一下’;
我不在? 更是天翻地覆唯独我不见,逐渐可以为所欲为。

ask for more

i saw cy having her bread in her mouth - full mouth. then i saw her waiting for another piece, after then she was asking for another more from teacher again!

Feb 10 - their thought

When ly firstly came to school, she never cried for mummy, but just a little sob once a while. Now she cried, after 1 month here.
“我以前都没有哭。 因为我告诉mummy 说我要读书,所以我不哭。”
“怎么现在又哭了呢?”
“因为我不想读书了。”
There must be some reasons behind what she'd say. but i managed to get her to class, and join with her classmates: we sang, we danced, we read, we wrote, we drew, we played; there were so much to learn a day:)

6 Feb - "i cried today"

"because i want u", xiang said.
another xiang's parent called today; xiang absents today because he cried and said, "i don't want Miss Lim."
i noe the other xiang don't like to be with me, even when i try to come near to him. But he does talk to me, and shared a lot of his stories! So, please don't blame me that his absence is because of me.

不忍心

不忍心看yx他哭得那么可怜。 可是我得放放手,不能让他如此任性。
我看,其他老师也是拿他没办法; 他就是不肯进课室。
忍心托他给其他老师后,就到外办事了。 回来一看... ...
结果如我所料,是没哭了,可是是他一个人坐着外头、背着书包,没有一人理会。
我拿了一些字卡和玩具,和他一起坐下。 他认图不错! 而且口才一级棒! 唯独还需要努力的是:去掉“要抱抱”的习惯。
园长提醒了我:"that's why we need to study every single child." 真心付出你对他的爱,他会感受到的。 只一味“stop crying... no crying”是不济于事的。

4 Feb - cry while read, sing and cry - simultaneously

can u imagine that? how can one cry and read at the same time, and more amazing is --- sing and cry simultaneously too!
Don't know what happened to wq today, but she had stomach-ache early morning, since then, she kept asking for mummy. She acted incredibly when we were ready for the class dismiss.

oww.. it's pain!

gareth fell down, on the road (he said).
Yesterday his wound almost heal but with the 'fragile' temporary skin that can be seen transparently,
but then today..., he's here with his wound --- double hurt.
妈妈为他清洗伤口及敷药布的时候;痛得他大哭大叫,妈妈也痛在心里: "slowly... it's very pain!!!" he kept repeating to his mum. 血粘着纱布,那伤口的肉也随之粘着纱布,每一撕,血随流,妈妈也每一拔,每每痛。
