The unsuccessful pda post....

I went to sch with headache... if not for the lab session I would be on mc....
This morning they had public caning..-ouch!! such a disgrace!! sigh... our students got prob... such serious offence still can laugh abt it... no sense of 'appropriateness'. I feel sad for them. prob we should have values like those in nan hua - li yi lian chi zhong xiao ai ren.... at least they learn what is shame n learn to avoid it...

Lab today was great! most students managed to test for sulphur dioxide using acidified potassium dichromate. it turns from orange to green. I even got them to paste the result on the report as samples! n I jus remember that I got to mark them this week. Next week will be cation test, should be quite fun.

Today cme @2/8 is quite peaceful n they are better behave... thank God! otherwise my head will burst! we did guided reflection today. I learnt to give them helping words n sample answers to help them. I also tried to give personal remarks to each of their reflections!

Cme @3/2 was a disappointment: 1. they did not finish their group work on festivals.
2. yangyang fail to complete n hand up wkbk!!
sigh! so much for a good if not the best class... Prob
my expectation is too high... whatever it is, I am disappointed....

TODAY WE PLAYED AGAINST RI!!! n we won!! Praise God!!
56-51. @ 1st qtr when one of their players was injured n carried out of court, we were leading 13-1, end of 1st qtr, it was 16-6 I think. during 2nd qtr, another of RI player fell when WX boxed out, n was carried out of court... weird things begin to happen. by right we should have greater lead as 2 of their main players are injured...but by 3rd qtr, we actually lost all lead n draw!!! I thought we might lose then... our players kept making mistake, mis-pass, miss baskets!! miss rebounds!!ARGH!!
thank God by 4th qtr, our boys managed to put in a few baskets n RI missed a few 180° 3pts n we got the rebounds.... we managed 54-43 @ the last 2min. however after their time out, RI scored 5pts immediately!! thank God our Sec 5 were experienced n steadfast. they remain calm n tried to drag time though RI were ferocious n were clawing @ whoever holding the ball!! then they fouled too obviously when they push one of us n pulled when we do lay-up. these gave us 4 penalty shots... the last 1 min was awfully long before time's up n we emerge the winner!! Yeah!
56-51.but I feel sad for RI, their 2 players were injured...
