Well, well....in the twinkling of an eye, its already CA2. I have been with my beloved students for about 3 terms and that's like 8 months. Wow. Time really passes very fast.
All the P5 teachers stayed in school and marked the Mathematics paper yesterday. I was anxious to know the marks of the students. Thus I stayed back in school to add up all the marks. Sigh...
Should I say I still have some expectations afterall? I was expecting them to be able to do the questions that I have taught. I was expecting some of them to perform better than they did in SA1. I was expecting....I was expecting someone to score an aggregate that is nearer to 50 or even 50.
No! That person did not disappoint me. A BIG NO NO.
His marks is not near to 50 at all. However, his results has improved from SA1 to CA1. He is a clever boy. He can do much better than what he is doing now. He gave me hope during last week's remedial class. He told me that he would do me proud by working really hard for the CA2 Math paper. He said that he would do his very best to try to pass. I was very very happy when he said that. I was really touched as I believed in him.
I really do not know how I should be feeling. That made me spend some time to reflect last night. Finally, I came up with this. Nothing constructive. Just how I really felt.
Dedicated to my beloved students of St 5 Dominic:
I'm very proud of all of you.
I'm proud that you have not given up hope in your studies despite facing a lot of difficulties. I can see the effort most of you are putting in. I'm very happy that most of you are still trying hard.
YES!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK HARD AND DO NOT GIVE UP.
I know that the learning journey to getting that pass (50 marks) in Mathematics paper is tough. I understand how all of you feel. I really do. Trust me.
Perservere. Never give up. You will definitely succeed one day.
YOU DEFINITELY WILL! :D
