Friday, March 21, 2008;
hey guys, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us by blogging it down on our class blog.
I am very glad that you guys care so much for the class. :) Mengshuen, dun put thoughts into my head k? Seriously what did you think i was thinking about? heh heh
I definately understand how you feel when you heard that comment about the class. Please allow me to give a few plausible reasons to the entire class.
My guess is that, many of offences committed by us are minor ones that do not warrant a HUGE punishment, thus the warning was given and the student committing the offense goes off.
However the student, did not heed the warning and commit the same offence again. When this cycle repeats, it becomes defiance. This is a much bigger offense and people will take notice (ie no more closing of one eye, 2 eye or what la).
I know our class is close knitted, vocal and lively. 1Empathy2008 is probably one of the best class I have seen. But I dun deny that there are some points we can improve on.
1) being on task
Being on task means being focused in the real thing at the real place at the right time. What I truly mean is to be doing the right things at the appropriate times. When we are playing, we shuld go all out to have fun and not let anything dampen our spirits. While during lessons, we should be working at our very hardest! That will disallow any 事倍功半 situation. Currently you guys are indeed not on task while studying in school. Next time let's find someone to measure the amount of time taken for you guys to settle down and to quieten down to listen to whoever is speaking in front. (lalala i know i am naggy. I die die must make mention that u guys dunwan to listen to me!!!) I know my 1EP is a smart class, even if most of you din put in much effort, you will still do relatively well. So why work hard you may ask, which brings me to my next point, being respectful.
2) being respectful
I am sure all of you dislike people who are disrespectful to you and you arent happi when people belittle you. (I hope my assumption is right, tat you guys want respect too) I absolutely dislike it when people are disrespectful. It need not be disrespect for me, i wun be happi if i see people belittling you guys or treat you guys with disrespect.
However, is respect given automatically to anyone? NO. THAT I AM SURE. respect needs to be earned. How do we earn it? By being respectful to others too. Remember virtues beget virtues, therefore if you respect others, people will do the same! Class, you cannot blame the counsellor for when he/she finds fault with you. Why? By improper grooming (not following the school rules), you are not respecting the school! Since the action shows disrespect to the school, why would any of the student counsellor body and the teacher body show respect to you?
similarly when you guys dun respect the person speaking at the front of the class, or else not respecting the teachers, why should he/she give u any face or any respect? of course not! that's why all the shouting done by the teachers and so on.
3) Sensitivity
Class the last point i will wan to point out is sensitivity towards others. I know who are the ones mentioned in Anna's post.
You guys need to understand that everybody is different. We experience different things and events, and belong to different cultures. That makes us who we are. Please think thru this scenario. How would you feel if someone insults something that you hold dear in your heart? For example, someone insults 1empathy2008? Will you feel angry and upset? I know you guys will be angry. Just look at the post mengshuen and anna made.
Let me cite an example. I know someone in our class was very upset and shout vulgarities when another student in our class said that his/her primary school suz big time. He/she retaliated by shouting loudly and chasing after that student who insult the primary that was so dear to him/her. Maybe the student who made the insult was being cheeky. Maybe he thought it was fun. MAYBE it was a DARE.
But before the comment was made by the student, some thought should be put first! Is the comment logical? What is the basis? Is there any truth in it? Are you being insensitive/rude by saying it? Also are you being silly to just make the comment just because you were being dared to do it? What will the consequences be after making the comment?
And to the person daring the student to make the comment. Are you even thinking about the consequences of your words and actions?
There is onli a thin fine line between rude/candid and insensitive.
Finally, Miss Ho wants to end by saying that I will go and find out more regarding what has happened. But I wan you guys to think thru what I have said. DO NOT compromise your stature just for a moment of fun and cheekiness. Because, you lose it once, you lose the respect of others forever.
Monday we will talk more about this during interaction okiez?
Thanks
