Letter Writing - Life Transformers 2 私函-《心晴大动员2》

Dear 2-4 peeps,

During CL class today, we watched episode 1 of Life Transformers 2. As I had said, we are going to write a letter to the boy concerned, Zong Hong, to 1) console and encourage him regarding his family's situation; 2) tell him what you've learnt from his story.

If you have missed out details of the show, here are the clips from YouTube.

2-4的同学们:

上华文课时,我们观看了《心晴大动员2》,相信大家都有很多感触。接下来我们就会尝试写封信给刘宗鸿小弟弟,安慰并鼓励他在逆境求存,努力求学,同时告诉他你从他的故事得到什么启发,学习了什么。

以下是这一集的节目。

Part 1/5



恶劣的环境(满屋跳蚤,蟑螂)——欠缺健康,干净的生活环境
父母百病缠身,母亲忧郁症,父亲糖尿病——无法找到工作/好好照顾孩子

Part 2/5



孩子多一个玩伴——陪妈妈玩——但母亲的位置却是一个空缺
很疼妈妈,和妈妈说话
只要求一个足球
父亲告诉儿子,去世后,要他把骨灰撒进大海,儿子却不愿意,说要把爸爸的骨灰放置在家中
11岁的宗鸿——腼腆
自己上学/回家。
了解家境辛苦,爸爸妈妈的情况,要长大后赚钱照顾他们
不喜欢爸爸对他说“骨灰撒大海”之类的话,伤心——但是明白爸爸担心他
“我最怕爸爸离开我们。”——不知道如果爸爸离开,他能怎么样
明白家里异常的情况——小小年纪,生命却有难以承受的“重”——小小心灵该如何承受如此重担?
内心的恐惧,无人知晓,无人明了——从来没有向任何人倾诉(包括老师),也没有人问过
父亲无心之言,让孩子幼小心灵饱受惊吓
无助的泪水,无尽的恐惧
并无其他心愿,书包/足球都不要,满足自己拥有的——只希望爸爸好起来,健健康康照顾他和妈妈
无欲无求,只愿父亲身体健康——父母无力关心孩子的感受——心灵受创

Part 3/5



家中简单的爱~~
宗鸿3年前转校到目前的学校
没有朋友,没有扶持他的人,家里没有榜样,或许得接受心理辅导
家中功课并没归类——没有教育,只有教训——孩子倍感委屈
整书包的纸张,从未整理过
纵有委屈,也无处申诉
需要大人从旁提点和细心教导
看到众人在忙,他自动要求帮忙——答应日后帮忙处理家务事,清理自己的书籍
得快些学习自强自立

Part 4/5



不怕跳蚤
帮妈妈找身份证

Part 5/5



从小到大没有睡过床,都睡在地上——完成他的小心愿
得到新床,反而哭了——感怀处境,悲从中来
制作组给他送上新的足球——开心,感谢众人
小小的惊喜——生日蛋糕——12岁生日
生日愿望——希望父亲身体健康,身体无恙,并无他愿——孩子的心,只挂着父母
配新眼镜,看跌打医生
将有社工给他进行辅导,有个倾诉的管道
放学后到学生中心报到,良好进修环境,希望对他的学业有所帮助(今年小六会考)



I hope you've learnt a lot from this episode as I have. The first time I watched it, my tears just won't stop flowing. And then I look back at how fortunate I have, how well off my family is and how peaceful my childhood was.

What about you?

我希望同学们都从中学习了很多。老师看了,哭得稀里哗啦的。做人要感恩,我们拥有的,又懂得珍惜多少?满腹埋怨,可想过他人的生活素质远远不及我们的,却毫无怨言?

想想吧,然后完成功课,星期一18/01/10交上!

Accident

Time check: 6.06pm

I wanted to type this post like... 2 days ago.

After all, accident happened 2 days ago.

You see, it all started off with a wonderful Saturday morning. I woke up, feeling refreshed and all (it's finally the weekends!!), all geared up for a morning run (YES, in case you're curious, R.U.N. Not like you guys crawling last Friday) and mentally preparing to return home to bake a cake (Yes again, I bake.).

And then, what follows left me with a nasty Saturday and no cake to bake / eat.

While doing my 3rd round, a teenager on a bicycle came in my way. So obviously you dodge when you see some vehicle in your way right? And I dodged.

Wrong move.

He 'smartly' Dodged as well.

INTO my path.

TA-DA.

And you can imagine what happens next.

Human and Steel crash - head on.

It was fortunate that I did not fall backwards or I would suffer a spinal injury / leg fracture / severe buttock ache on top of my cuts, sprain and bruises.

Half my palm was blue (sprained, no less), 3 ugly blue blacks on my legs and a cut on my hand.

I thought running WAS safe. Now, I've second thoughts. Now if you ask me... Running isn't exactly safe...

:(

i must post something

I am compelling myself to type something here.

The last time I posted was... Last October. LOL.

The lazy bug has been biting and still biting. Tell me truthfully, you don't want to come back to school too right? You wish it's still the holidays, don't you?

I am thinking the same way too.

*pulls hair in agony*

I am still not used to SCHOOL life. :(

Still, it's time to get back to reality. Hi to my 1-4, now 2-4 family, along with new family members, no less. (: Let's have a smashin' time this year!!

Meanwhile, do remember to start doing your homework and get hold of all your books + files and what nots, if you haven't gotten them!!


P/S: How were your holidays? I realised that I did not find out about your holidays this time round!! Tee Hee~~~

holidays approaching!

Hi darlings...

Sch holidays are fast approaching!! YAY!!

Aren't you guys excited? 2 months of fun (or boredom for some) and crazy change of bio-clock.

I'm excited, for this is the first holiday I'm having as a full-fledged teacher. Ever since joining the service, time has passed so fast and January seemed like yesterday. (:

I'm loving every bit of time I have spent with my lovelies from the various classes and if I ever teach you guys next year, we'll have a blast in 2010 too!

Meanwhile, any recommendations on what you guys would like to see during CL lessons in future? Tag me!!

亲爱的宝贝们:

学校假期即将来临,你们兴奋吗?

我啊,十分期待这有生以来第一个以正式老师度过的假期。时间过得实在快,一转眼,一年就这样结束了。

我很享受这一年来与大家的互动。如果明年有幸再教导各位,我想我们依然能学习得如此快活!

同学们对以后的华文课有没有什么好建议,提供我参考?

给我一些意见吧!

Chat

Flooble died on me, somehow.

Have the new cbox on the left.

So you guys can continue having mass chat. But remember, leave your names and no vulgarities / finger-pointing!!

Besides, you may choose to 'follow' my blog. The link is somewhere below the cbox.

Haven't been blogging much, but i've been Plurking a lot...

Join Plurk and be part of my 'community' ba!! (:

Matchmaking session

I don't know what got into the minds of my 2-2 babies.

When I stepped into the class...

“老师,等一下你要去相亲啊?”

(Teacher, you're going for a matchmaking session later?)

-__________-|||

What do you think you should wear on a first date?

Like how I wore? HM... That is interesting.

Dress - top: black lycra; bottom: mini black polka dots on white cotton.
Belt- brass buckled, black elastic, vintage
Necklace - vintage owl
Earrings- gold, pearl, bronze etc assorted beads dangling
Hair - a handful twisted and pinned to the right

Lol. So I shall remember to look like this on my first date next time, if it ever materialises.

When asked why I should be going for a matchmaking session after school, this is the response I got:

"You look unique like this mah."

You guys sure make me laugh.

EOY

EOY 2009's fast approaching, especially for the language papers. Will be doing intensive revision so please be good and revise more at home. Xie Xie.

Flooble's dead.

I have been trying to revive Flooble, the chatbox.

It has been dead for a while.

I'll try CPR and see if it can be saved.

Blah.

O HW P HW

While there are loansharks who use the O$P$ acronym, I use O HW P HW.

There are still certain individuals, whom I shall not name to protect your identity, not handing up the SUPER OVERDUE Chinese essay from the various classes (except 1-3, everyone has handed up).

I am majorly upset.

Thanks to Vernon, I've gotten 2 more essays from 1-4. (:

I'm trying my best to finish marking all because we need to clear one more essay (at least) and one more letter writing when school reopens... And we've got no time. I still have to prepare the Sec 1s for Oral exams + Written exams, we still have a class test in week 2. Final exams are in week 3. There is so much going on yet there's so little time.

I am devastated.

I'm trying so hard but are you?

老师很失望啊。。。

E Blaze

Finished the E blaze homework?

Darlings, please finish them asap!!

Counted in Term Assessment 4!!!
