7th August - 11th August (Week 13)

 

The beginning of the early-year exams have already started this week. Hence, teachers will not proceed with their lessons and teaching sessions with the students. Teachers will be given a block schedule for each class conducting the exam. We were also asked to fill in for relief for the absent teachers during the examination weeks. 

The teachers are not only occupied with taking care of the class that is currently undergoing examinations but also with marking the question papers that have been answered by the pupils. Even though it is examination week, we continue our drama practice after school. 

As announced by the government, on 12 August, people from 6 states will hold elections. Because most teachers in this school come from Kelantan and Terengganu, the school management applied for a holiday on 11 August, and the application was approved. Hence, there was an off day for the teachers and students. 

In addition, I'm not only coaching the students for drama competitions, but I also helped Teacher Mumtazah to teach evening session students for a choir competition. On 11 August (Friday), the organizer announced that SMK Cochrane Perkasa won 5th place in the competition, where 14 other schools participated.

We still have another week to end our internship period. I started feeling so sad because I needed to let them go. Some of them beg me to stay, but there is nothing I can do to stay here with them. "Do you really need to leave teacher?" – Najla 4C "Why don't you just stay until the end of the year?" – Divyan 4B "Teacher Athirah is the best English teacher I have ever learned with." – Wan Fikri 4B "Later, who will help us with sports and Kadet Bomba's   activities?" – Aniq 5C "After this, I can't run to you whenever I receive a new gossip." – Hasbul 5C "No more Gen Z teachers that would understand us." – Qis 4E "Who am I supposed to talk about Carhartt and Stussy stuff after this, teacher?" – Aiman Danial 4E All questions and confessions came from the students I teach in class; some were not even from my class. I spent most of my journey in SMK Cochrane Perkasa to keep my bond with the stud...

This week marks the end of the first round of examinations for all students at the beginning of the year. In addition to that, this week will be the final week before the break between term 2 and 3. The students are excited that the examinations are done and will not be required to attend school the following week. This makes them doubly happy. The timetable for the examinations remains unchanged.  On 22 August (Tuesday), The English Drama Co-Academic Competition had the participation of 24 different schools. SMK Tiara Permai in Sentul served as the venue for the competition. It was a closed drama competition. Thus, no spectators will be allowed to see any teams compete.     Form 4 English Oral Test began on 21 - 23 August (Monday until Wednesday). Meanwhile, the Form 4 Listening Test was conducted on 24 August (Thursday). After the competition, however, I was tasked with being an English listening test exam invigilator despite being allowed to opt out of supervising the ...

Last 1 August (Tuesday) - 4 August (Friday), all morning session English teachers involved with Form 5's speaking and listening test. It was our first time being an interlocutor. It was a great new experience for us. Furthermore, on 2 August (Wednesday), for extracurricular activity, every student must gather at the assembly point for a drawing competition. After taking all of  Kelab Kudayaan 's attendance, Ms Haniza, the head of Arts teacher, explained the competition rules. Each teacher was given drawing paper to distribute to the students. On the next day, 3 August (Thursday), the independence month launch ceremony was held at the assembly site. Various interesting activities were carried out on the day, such as launching gimmicks, reciting poems and singing independence day songs together. Although the teachers are busy preparing for the exam next week, we still practice for the sketch drama competition at the school last August 5 (Saturday).
