(Term 4 Wk 8, 27/10 - 31/10)
Exams are over. They just flew by in a blink. Weeks ago you were going through your revision (I hope so!). Now, your life calms down to a pace that is more relaxing, much relieved.
Very soon, you will be harvesting - for all the hardwork you've put in for 2008. Going through exams scripts and doing correction. These are the 'activities' that you always participate after exams. Watch out for them!
Well, the obvious way to tell what you've achieved is from your results. How much improvement have I made? Where are my strengths, my weaknesses? How else can I do to better the results. There are tons of questions you can ask yourself pertaining to the area of academic achievement.
I just want to say that beside academic aspects, you should also look at the changes in your behaviour, personalities, conduct, attitudes... - simply put: your maturity since the start of the year. These are areas that you cannot just use marks to tell how good you are. You know yourself, how much you've grown up. I, too, have an opinion in every one of you in terms of your maturity. Overall, I am very pleased even though I feel I could have done much better to shaping you to be a better person.
We have two more weeks before school ends. You might want to spend some time to ponder/ reflect on the YEAR 2008. The time can never rewind. (Maybe I will get you to do some reflection in your journal regarding this ... ... )
Well, I shall end here. I still have more to say but I think I will keep it for the next posting.
Work? Freestyle journal writing.
Mood: Calm. Retracking the special moments in 2008.
