School Holidays and Extra Classes…

School holidays has started, for nearly two weeks now, and I believed many students and teachers are enjoying the holidays currently. Happy Holidays.

Spelling of days…

The only days that they seemsto find it easy to memorize is Monday. Ohh… what should I do? I believe I have been stern enough for them to learn. I have gave them exercises for them to write it  and yet with little success only. Things getting harder. It kind frustrating when my pupils result in first mid year examination wasn’t that good. It was so fulfilling when this pupils able to understand and memorize the things that I teach that day. So, whoever said that teaching is easy, look again.
