Didn't Do It!

A little girl came home from school and said to her mother, "Mommy, today in school I was punished for something that I didn't do. "

The mother exclaimed, "But that's terrible! I'm going to have a talk with your teacher about this ... by the way, what was it that you didn't do?"

Be Yourself Day on 31 Aug


On this day, students are encouraged to hang up their uniforms and come to school dressed to best express their personalities.

Students can join in this great day of creative freedom by simply making a donation of $2. Their contributions will help the school raise funds for the needy students.

Talk by Sharifah on 30 Aug

Kim, Queenie, May, Lee Way, Wen Jing, Pram, Wei Cheng, Gerald, Bee Hong, Sylvia, Bernard, Fiona, Susan, Yvonna, Christina, Irene, Ai Sim, Mitchell, Amajit, Joanne ..

Those are the names I can remember, retain and retrieve from this morning talk "Make Learning Fun" by Parent Volunteer Ms Sharifah Riguan. Everyone in the talk can remember one another through a special memory game. There are more fun that followed, the spaghetti and meatball game, the picture game and quizzes.

Sharifah has made learning so fun and easy. She is as good as any of the external speakers if not better.

We all brought back an important message, "Believe in yourself and dream on". Sharifah is going to try parachuting at the age of 50 with a scarf, Christina is going to be the best golfer in world replacing Tiger Wood and Joanne will try teaching.

Our potential resembles an iceberg, 10% seen and 90% unseen. We have only used 10% of our potential, 90% is still untapped. Believe in yourself and aim high ! You are what you want to be.

Once again, thank you Sharifah for conducting this talk despite the fasting period. We have truly enjoyed ourselves.

Cheers
Joanne

Results for CA2

Results for most of the subjects are out and congratulations to all who have done well.

Students who have failed the subject will be taking a re-test on Monday after class.

I would like to congratulate Jun Hao for showing such a big improvement in this CA2. This shows that everyone in the class can do it if you make an effort to do so. Jun Hao has spent about 4 hours every day to revise his schoolwork. The efforts have paid off and this will serve as an encouragement for all students who wishes to do well. You can if you want to !

Cheers

Personal Recount Website Project

A Personal recount is writing about your own experiences using rich descriptive language and emotions from a first person point of view. You are to create a website based on at least 4 of these categories and write a personal recount of the times when you first liked the item/place.

All of My Favourite Things

Genre of music/Bands/Artiste
Books
Food
Place of Attraction
Country
Brand

Remember the features and purpose of a personal recount, and include them in your essays.

Step 1 : (Week 1)
Decide on your 4 favourite things. Research more on them so as to establish a stronger storyline of events in your personal recount.

Step 2 : (Week 2-3)
Write a personal recount on all 4 of these items, including the following :
(i) What did you feel when you were encountering the item, or what were you undergoing when you heard the song being played ?
(ii) Why does the item/place appeal to you ?
Iiii) Why does the item/place mean so much to you ?

Step 3 : (Week 3)
Link up any websites that you have used to research on your project.

You are not to plagiarize any websites, or copy your friend's work. Anyone caught cheating will be severly dealt with and may get a zero for this assignment.

[extracted from BVSS PGS Yahoo Group]

Dear Parents/guardians,

The following circular was given out to all students. I reproduce it below for your reference.

Dear parents/guardians

NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATIONS 2009

Bedok View Secondary will be celebrating our nation's birthday on Friday 7th August. Students will report to school by 7.50 am, and will be dismissed by 9.30 am.

There will be no lessons on the day. To express our collective aspirations as one united people all students are encouraged to wear red T-shirts to school on that day.

The red T-shirts can either be their school or class T-shirt, or any other T-shirt as long as they do not bear offensive or rude messages or images.

Alternatively, students can continue to wear their school uniform to school on Friday. Please be informed that Monday 10th of August is a school holiday. Lessons will resume on Tuesday 11 Aug 2009.

May we take this opportunity to wish everyone `Happy National Day'.
