SM- 4th terms -2010

We are now into the final term for 2010. missy class now has 4 girls, one born in Jan(Tyra), one in August(Megan), missy in Sept, and one in Nov(Zi Tong/Ashley). We can see the Jan girl doing much better than the rest, in term of concentration and understanding. But i believe all of them are equally good, just that the Jan-born girl (Tyra) is starting to output, while the rest is still in the inputting stage.

We have a poem to recite this term. Called Rocket. I read once to missy, get her to repeat after me. Then she is able to recite the whole poem. she has never stop to amaze me.

Rocket
======
I am a rocket
Crouched on the ground
Waiting quietly
without a sound

Light this fuse
on my little toe
waiting to take off
Here i go
Whooshhh..

They are suppose to recite in front of the class. which i have some concern, as i noticed missy usually will shy off if we ask her to "show-off" what she knows.. she will either keep looking at me, twisting her tongue, or speak with super tiny voice..

so, i hope to train her confidence, get her to be more outspoken. hopefully, with the practise, she will be better.
