Hello 6R1 & 6R4 2014

Now at least I have a good reason to revisit my blog and make use of it.
TO MY 6R1 & 6R4 CLASSES:
Ok, those of you who missed out on the notes/exercises we did in class yesterday (11/9/2014), you can view them here - go to the page MUET 2014 (L6) - NOTES & EXERCISES

Oh dear, I've done it again. Neglecting this blog. Been busy, of course. Haha.. my posting will eventually be an annual activity if I keep neglecting to do it.

Okay.. once again.. this year the sixth formers took part in the annual preuniversity cocurricular carnival. For English, there were the public speaking  & english sketch competitions. We didn't win any of the top three positions in both competitions. Other schools, of course, were much better than us. Next year (with the next batch of students), we will strive harder.

When we first sent our entry form for the English Sketch competition we were disqualified because we didn't follow the competition guidelines requiring 3 Malay actors and 3 others from other races. We had 3 Chinese, 2 Indians & 1 Malay. My fault as the teacher who took for granted that there was no race issue in the competiton rule like the year before (we had 2 each of Malay, Chinese and Indian in last year's team). So at the last minute, we decided to still enter (for the sake of taking part) and therefore made the last minute changes to the script and list of actors. We did the best we could in the short time we had. I will try to upload the sketch we did as soon as I finished editing the video. (Be patient ah...!)
