someting bout my sch holidaes...

sch hols started a little earlier fer me...cos was oreadi on course b4 sch hols started....visuals n structured teaching.....heard the stuff over n over liao...my prog head bored to bits....so we kinda gossipped abit...heh...

outta 5 daes, 3 daes i'm on training...2 in-house, 1 at ssti...had one on occupational therapy....quite interesting...learnt how to do massages, activities for calming, etc....the hands-on part was quite funny...cos all the older generation pple din wan to try....so the rest of us just tried on each other...massaging n demo...haa...not so calming to us i guess....cos our senses work differently frm the students'....another one was by my prog head...chim...heard mani of the tings b4 but nid to refresh my memory man....application is another difficult part....the other one on handwriting...the ferst 5 min into the workshop i knew i was in the wrong workshop liao....i nided pre-writing skills, not handwriting skills...haiz....but not bad lar...my colleague got to noe a pretty cut guy at the workshop...haa...so bad...teasing her even tho she oreadi has a dotter...

prep-work: to be done todae n over the weekend....without the laminating machine is such a torture...or mabbe i'm too used to having laminated tings n velcro around me....

farniest joke of term 1:

in relation to my trainings on visuals...we often presesnt symbols or pictures to students to communicate...esp so when most of them are non verbal n studies haf shown they understand better in pictures den when spoken to....overload....many a times in class, i would show icons (as if they are some referee cards or talisman....

now look at the picture below....wad does it mean to u?


now try again....


better? makes more sense?

so guess wad one of my student did when i showed it to him when he was v noisy....(cldnt find the "be quiet" card when in a frantic).....

answer: he dropped his jaw n opened his mouth wide....i stood beside him dumbfounded n stunned for 3 sec....den i started bursting into luffter....told my co-teacher wad happened she too luffed....so literal.....so cute....whenever i see dat pic i'm alwiz reminded n cant help but giggle....my mistake...shld haf put a red cross on it...so visuals do werk....but it nids to be explained...since he cant read the words....but well, it did kip him quiet for a while...hhahaha....
