Trudged my way to the last day of school. Which is a remarkable feat in itself because any teacher who has had to teach students to sit still, focus and learn after their exams can attest to the excruciating pain involved.

Still, I spent two periods today modifying four questions for my Foundation Science class just to reinforce the concept of identifying changed variables. I must admit that I am aghast at how the new syllabus requires Primary 3 students to identify changed and unchanged variables from the get-go. Won’t this nightmare hit closer to home when my son grows up in the near future? Geez. 🙄

(I only managed to go through two questions with them, but no harm done. Sensei is professional this way.)

Also forced my English class to complete a comprehension exercise while I attended to two students and gave them pointers for their reading. Well, I hope they take some of these pointers to heart and improve gradually so that I can focus on their other peers next year. A public school teacher’s job is never done.

No worries. Sensei handles it well because he went straight home after dismissal to indulge in the last episode of Physical Asia.
