Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

Syawal menjelang tiba sehari dua lagi...

My dear students,

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri... Maaf zahir batin kalau teacher ada tersilap cakap, terkasar bahasa... Kalau kan beraya ke rumah teacher, dipersilakan. Teacher open house ni 25 September ani... Just text me okeh. Insya Allah I'll send texts to you all (siapa2 yg bagi nombornya lah tu).

;)

Did you know... that today's the day I celebrate my life?

And to spend it half of the morning in HEP... I'm so disappointed... that you would do this.

Sesungguhnya aku sedang berpuasa....

Beautiful earth

Betapa indahnya bumi ciptaan Allah s.w.t....

Disappointed

I just am. Of what happened these past few days.

Looking forward to a better tomorrow...

Extra Class

So, as it turns out, tomorrow's extra class can be held.

You know the time and place...

Again, it is NOT compulsory. I'll be there to answer your questions. Or you can use the time to DO your homework =)

T.I.R.E.D

I felt really tired today as I didn't get enough rest. So, when I found some students "complaining" or "sighing-ever-so-loudly" whether by joking or actually serious, that certainly didn't help to lift up my mood.

If you find that the exercises I gave you are just a burden to you, tell me ahead so I don't have to give it to you. But of course, provided that you can prove to me that you can score 90% above in a POA final exam paper NOW. Then we'll talk.

Should you be able to get that much, these exercises should be a breeze to you. Easy-peasy. Enough said.

To those who try so hard to complete those exercises, I thank you sincerely for your efforts . Inya Allah they'll all be worth it =)

Bad News

Come to school tomorrow and you'll know.

My life in school

So, as I promised to all of my students, I've given three special awards to three students. The award is called "Student of The Month". The criterias to win are simple. Good behaviour is one of them.

When I evaluate each student for this award, I DON'T look at your marks. Sometimes you see me with a clipboard right? And when I jot things down, those are actually my notes about you lot.

For one class, some of you come close. Almost a tie. But I count points. Obviously, the student with the highest points win.

Without further ado, and as you already know, here are the students of the month of July 2009.

Weird Tape Effect

Another science mystery for you! If you've got it, tell me!

Disregard the one about Sesame Street unless you grew up watching them like I did =)

Science is cool!

If in the future, you decide to not go into the accounting field but instead the science field, consider this:

Undergraduates from Virginia Tech designed a vehicle for the BLIND. Seriously cool!



[...] The semi-autonomous vehicle uses a laser range finder, voice software and other sensory technology, and it worked flawlessly when blind drivers took the wheel on a closed course. [...]

[...] The steering wheel is hooked up to a distance monitor that gathers information from laser range finders, and it uses voice software to tells the driver how far to turn the wheel. For example, the monitor will tell the driver “turn left three clicks.” As the driver does that, the monitor makes three clicking noises.

A vibrating vest provides cues to follow when accelerating and decelerating. The vest vibrates in different places — the back, the belly and the shoulders — to convey different commands. When the entire vest vibrates, it means, “Slam on the brakes!”[...]

[...] “People always say, ‘What’s the point of this project?’” Hong said. “But blind people who drive the vehicle always have a big smile on their face afterwards. It’s therapeutic and gives them hope of being entirely independent.” [...]

Cool innit?

UPDATES!

Good news. Second Assessment Test's format has been changed:

Announcement!

My dear students,

The time has come to give you topical tests. There will be two tests coming in the near future.

---

TEST 1

Topics: Double-Entry(4) & Trial Balance(5)

ONE QUESTION only but it's quite a long one. I'll use one of your 2-period classes.

That means...

4A - 27 July 2009 -- Periods 1 & 2

4B - 28 July 2009 -- Periods 6 & 7

4C - 27 July 2009 -- Periods 4 & 5

4E - 27 July 2009 -- Periods 8 & 9

SECOND ASSESSMENT TEST

This will happen sometime between 4 & 17 August 2009. I haven't got the timetable yet.

Just know that the topics covered will be from Topic 1 to Topic 6.

There are going to be two papers ie. Paper 1 & 2.

Paper 1: Multiple Choice Questions -- 30 questions

Paper 2: Structured Questions -- 5 questions

So, I appreciate it if you can revise early on your own.

---

Third thing, extra classes will begin NEXT WEEK on 29th July (Wednesday) and further dates will be listed out in the forms which I'll give to all of you next week (for your parents to sign). I'll conduct 2/3 extra classes a week. I know it's too much but know that you're way behind from other schools. WAY behind. You should be starting at least topic 10 by now.

School Holiday Extended

I was just listening to the national news at 5.45pm... School holiday has just been extended up to 5th July 2009.
