Went to sch early today as I had a meeting with a classmate on at 0830h. Sent DW to sch too, as the other levels were having their oral exams(quite bad timing cos she's still nursing the cough).
The discussion started off a little shakily as I brought up something for discussion-
Me: Remember how we have decided on which book to use for the assignment? Az: Ya, what's up? Me: I know you have already bought the book, but I thought that you could take a look at this one. I feel it has some valuable teaching pts! *hands book over* Az: *browsing*Okie, this looks interesting... Me: *with the thickest skin on display* Well, perhaps we can list out the pros and cons of using each book and decide after that? Az: Hmmmm....
Me being the one with the itchy fingers, decided to rock the boat with an alternative book. I knew it was going to be tough as my friend Az really like the illustrator of the book that we had chosen earlier. We ended sticking with the same book.
Although we spent 15min comparing the books, I feel it was time well-spent. Spent the next 1.5h typing up the notes of the discussion. Grabbed a sandwich from the canteen and my favourite concoction from the fruit juice stall(Green Apple and Yakult) and went to class.
The lesson was ok but as it went on, I felt that the lesson material was becoming quite unintelligible, which is a bad thing. By the time I left, I really felt even more confused when I first stepped in, which is worse. What the??? Luckily, I should be able to consult with SWMNBN tomorrow as she is the coordinator for the course!
Found out during the Bio lecture that we are going on a field trip to Sungei Buloh on Sat evening, so I should have lots of nice photos to share when I get back...cool! (time to warm up the old slide maker...)
