Early this morning, my CT gave me a pile of books and asked me to read through. At first, I thought it was a pile of workbooks for me to be familiarized with their style of teaching.
However, it turned out to be their daily diaries and guess what! A lot of them wrote about me! Yes, the students here are required to write a short essay everyday about anything they like and their form teacher will read through and comment on it, as a sort of teacher-student interaction!
This is indeed a good way of understanding different student and it also form a mutual trust between the students and teacher.
Below are some examples of their work! Only extracts though!
These entries really made my day! Reminds me the reasons behind the decision to be in this profession. Day 3 ends and looking forward to the follow days!
Yes, getting students to write journals is one way for teachers to know them better. What did they say about you, Sian Yin?
