Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Thursday, August 26, 2010. Mommy's milk = smart. A story shared by a colleague last Monday morning at the canteen really tickled my bones. While her pupils were doing their work, my colleague heard a slight argument between two of her kids. Let's name them D and N. They were arguing about whose coloring pencils belongs to who since both have the same type of coloring pencils. D : Buduh bah kau ni! N : Kau lah buduh! D : Kaulah buduh!

Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Friday, February 3, 2012. Heart fills with loves. Yesterday, before letting the kids in my Maths class out to go home, someone passed me a folded paper. Teacher, dari si Bryan Eric". Said the Ketua Kelas when handing me the paper. I slowly unfolded the paper and one look at the hand-drawn picture inside, I felt warm feeling flushed into my heart. What a nice thing to end up my weekdays. Posted by chegu carol.

Classroom Talk: July 2010
http://caitleya.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Friday, July 16, 2010. The past few days, I've been working on a Big Book entitle, The Singing Crow. Living in a world with fast rising technology, I should know better to just scan the pictures, print them in bigger size and voila, a Big Book for me! Instead, I decided to go for the long way - draw and color. I don't know about you teachers out there but I am the kind that enjoy colors (and coloring) very much. VERY! Said the first girl.

Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Tuesday, April 17, 2012. Tidak apa, cikgu tidak marah. Kalau cikgu marah, cikgu memang bodoh macam yang kena tulis di dinding tu. Tapi sebenarnya, yang bodoh tu ialah orang yang menconteng dinding hanya kerana dia marah dengan cikgu.". That was all I said to them as a reply. The rest of the kids nodded their head in agreement to my statement. I threatened him just to get the truth. It was wrong, in some sense but it worked. I also d...Accep...

Classroom Talk: June 2010
http://caitleya.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Tuesday, June 22, 2010. What's in a name? While checking my student’s attendance during the Maths extra class today, I came upon one student who wasn’t listed. His name is clearly written on his name tag. So, instead of asking his name, I asked for his surname. He looked at me and then shifted his eyes up, signaling he was thinking. And then, he flipped his exercise book to check his name on the front cover. He smiled and told me his name.

Compilation of stories she collected along her teaching journey. Wednesday, April 21, 2010. Hubby once asked me, if I am to be promoted from being a teacher to working in the education office as someone most people call 'Pegawai' and with a raise in salary of course, will I take the job? I couldn't give a straight answer cos half of me is delighted with the idea of a pay rise. But the other half is missing the things that I will leave behind - my kids and their antics. A story to share:. But one did mind.
