Track & Field MSSD PP 2015

Alhamdulillah after months of training and 2 weeks of going back and forth between Subang Perdana and SMK USJ23, my UTig3r Team had won three medals for this year Track and Field Championship, MSSD Petaling Perdana level.

The medals are gold and bronze for L4 High Jump, and also bronze for L5 Shot Put. For L4 High Jump, Izzul - last year record holder for L5 high jump (1.35m) as expected had won the gold medal and at the same time had broken last year's L4 high jump record (1.40m) with the new record (1.45m). He had also been awarded as the Olahragawan Daerah for Sekolah Rendah. The unexpected  medals from Masrie who last year only managed to be in fourth place, had won bronze medal for L4 High Jump. The second unexpected medal was won by Firman for the L5 Shot Putt.

Olahraga team had achived a very good performance this year with overall 3 medals compared to last year 2 medals. Unfortunately, I was unable to join the prize giving ceremony as I need to attend for a meeting at SK Bukit Jelutong. By the way, congratulations to the managers and trainers - Maisarah, Kak Zura, Fazila Mon, Nana, Md Zin and me as well.. :-D Now, let's get ready for d MSSS training..

Class Reshuffle

Today all year 5 classes had undergone reshuffling process where the students need to move according to their new classes. At the beginning I was informed that there will be 9 new members that will join our 5 Dinamik class. So, I told the students that whenever new members of 5 Dinamik will be announced, they need to welcome the new members with applause as a welcoming gesture.

But 10 minutes before the reshuffling process started, I received the bad news. I told the students that I am so sorry that there will be some members moving out to other class. It was then when the process began, I soon realised that my students were so frustrated and sad. Even now I am still can  remember their sad faces.

I was sad too because we had so many great moments in the classroom. From English lessons to decorating the classroom. All were great memmories. We transformed our classroom to become the 5 Dinamik space agency, pasting all alien stuffs, hanging solar system on the wall, you name it. We even had planned to have our very own 5 Dinamik field trip to the National Planetarium this year. I am so sad that these kids will never be able to join us.

The parents in my 5 Dinamik group were quite dissapointed as well to see that their children went back home sulky, gloomy, sad and some even crying. Some parents did asked me to just make thier children stay in the 5 Dinamik classroom.

Unfortunately, all the things happened were beyond my control.  No matter how sad we are, life must go on. I hope that these kids will enjoy their time in other classroom. It might be taking some time to adapt, but I know they will survive and enjoy their new classroom. Once again, thank you for the great memories we had in the classroom, children....

Lesson: Superheroes Meeting

Topic 3
KSSR English Year 5
Module: Listening and Speaking

I had previously asked my pupils to prepare a costume of superhero that they wanted to be. The idea should be original and authentic that should not be a copy of superhero that we can see on film or television.

To my amazed, they had came out with superbly creative ideas. There were Zero Girl, Zorro Boy, Super Mechanic, Lightning Girl and many more! Each superheroes had been given a chance to talk about themselves and thier superpowers. The other groups then asked 3 questions from page 22.

When I did the Superheroes Meeting in 5 Dinamik, I can see that they were so passive and a bit shy at first. But soon later, the girls who were so quite had raised their hands, started asking questions to other superheroes. I could see that they were now comfortable in my classroom. They might had just need some extra motivations and encouragements.

Overall, I am so proud that they had put their full effort into this project. Even the parents were so helpful. This will be a kickstart for a more exciting English lessons in the future. InsyaAllah...
