Teachers' Day coming ^^


1 Sept is the teachers' day. I had a present for my senior teacher.. I shared this present with another teacher. We are teachers but why we still buy teachers' day present right? hahah.. because there is one teacher in my center taught us alot of things.She is my senior teachers. She taught us how to handle those children. Cos most of the students have problem in behaving themselves.She also taught us the method to teach those student that are slow in learning.Below is a story i found online. Interesting.

A story of teacher day

There is a story many years ago of an elementary teacher.Her name was Mrs. Thompson.
And as she stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school, she told the children a lie. Like most teachers, she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same. But that was impossible, because there in the front row, slumped in his seat, was a little boy named Teddy.

Mrs. Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he didn't play well with the other children, that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath. And Teddy could be unpleasant. It got to the point whereMrs. Thompson would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen, making bold X's and then putting a big "F" at the top of his papers.

At the school where Mrs. Thompson taught,she was required to review each child's past records and she put Teddy's off until last. However, when she reviewed his file,she was in for a surprise.

Teddy's first grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh.He does his work neatly and has good manners...he is a joy to be around."

His second grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is an excellent student,well-liked by his classmates, but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life
at home must be a struggle."

His third grade teacher wrote, "His mother's death has been hard on him.
He tries to do his best but his father doesn'tshow much interest and his home life will soon affecthim if some steps aren't taken."

Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show muchinterest in school.He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."

By now, Mrs. Thompson realized the problem and she was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when her students brought her Christmas presents, wrapped in beautiful ribbons and bright paper, except for Teddy's. His present was clumsily wrapped in the heavy,brown paper that he got from a grocery bag.Mrs. Thompson took pains to open it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to
laugh when she found a rhinestone bracelet with some of the stones missing and a bottle that was one quarter full of perfume. She stifled the children's laughter when she exclaimed how pretty the bracelet was, putting it on, and dabbing some
of the perfume on her wrist.

Teddy stayed after school that day just long enough to say, "Mrs. Thompson, today you
smelled just like my Mom used to." After the children left she cried for at least an hour.

On that very day, she quit teaching reading, and writing, and arithmetic.
Instead,she began to teach children.

Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. As she worked with him, his mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he responded. By the end of the year, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the the class and, despite her lie that she would love all the children same, Teddy became one of her "teacher's pets."

A year later, she found a note under her door, from Teddy,telling her that she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Six years went by before she got another note from Teddy. He then wrote that he had finished high school,second in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Four years after that, she got another letter, saying that while things had been tough at times, he'd stayed in school,had stuck with it, and would soon graduate from college with the highest of honors. He assured Mrs. Thompson that she was still the best and favorite teacher he ever had in his whole life.

Then four more years passed and yet another letter came.This time he explained that after he got his bachelor's degree,he decided to go a little further. The letter explained that she was still the best and favorite teacher he ever had. But now his name was a little longer. The letter was signed,Theodore F. Stollard, M.D.

The story doesn't end there.You see, there was yet another letter that spring.
Teddy said he'd met this girl and was going to be married.He explained that his father had died a couple of years ago and he was wondering if Mrs. Thompson might agree to sit in the place at the wedding that was usually reserved for the mother of the groom.

Of course, Mrs. Thompson, did. And guess what? She wore that bracelet, the one with several rhinestones missing.And she made sure she was wearing the perfume that Teddy remembered his mother wearing on their last Christmas together.

They hugged each other and Teddy whispered in Mrs. Thompson's ear, "Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me.Thank you so much for making me feel important and showing me that I could make a difference."

Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back. She said, "Teddy, you have it all wrong.You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn't know how to teach until I met you."

Little Prince


Recently, i went to buy a storybook called Little Prince. I knew it was long time ago published, but now den i got the interest in reading it..

The story was interesting and cute.. Many meaningful things..The Little Prince is a fantasy about a pilot, stranded in the Sahara, who meets a small boy from another planet. The boy, who refers to himself as a prince, is on a quest for knowledge. The little prince asks questions of the pilot and tells the pilot of life on his own very small planet. This story is told in a simple fashion, as children's stories typically are, but it is not really a children's story. It is a story of a grown-up who has almost forgotten what is important. It is the story of the pilot's reconnection to his own sense of imagination and wonder. It is the story of the re-opening of the pilot's heart.

The story begins when the author is six-years-old. He draws a picture of a boa constrictor who has just swallowed an elephant. He shows his drawing to a group of adults all of whom believe it to be a drawing of a hat. The author then draws a second picture of a boa constrictor who has eaten an elephant. This time he shows the elephant, clearly, inside the boa constrictor. When he shows his second drawing to the adults they tell him to stop drawing and focus on important subjects like reading, writing and arithmetic.

Recommended people to buy and read. They came out with a comic version.. Try reading it..You will like it..

Happy Day

Wow.. today they got their results.. so excited.. My hard work to them is not wasted. There is one parent came here to tell me thank as i helped her child to improve the english. He got passed for his english. Normally this child isnt good in english subject.So i used a diff way of teaching to him.. So happy, he never disappoint me.. Beside him, there are a few student came to tell me their marks.. Mostly got Band 2 and Band 1 for the subject i taught.

Teaching for so long. I think the most Teacher's day present i got is their results..They really can make my days happy. When they show improvement in the exams, i felt happy. Parents should learn to understand and praise their children necessary. They are kids once time, should know what kids needed the most. Not only pamper them everyday. It is not saying that cant pamper them but in a way that they know daddy and mummy praise them, and why sometime they got scolding when they did wrong. =)

Teachers' day coming soon.. I wished all teachers had a wonderful day =D
