First Championship: Reading Corner!

The whole Upper School Department was tasked to put up a reading corner or a "mini-library" in each classroom. It is the first competition that the English Department sponsored, and it's really beyond happiness to know that my section won the first prize. :)

I'll always and forever be a fan of cramming. We've magically put up this corner for two hours, and I really believe that cramming is indeed a TALENT. :) I have inherited this "unkabogable" skill through my UST- EHS students. :)

Welcome to our amazing reading corner! :)

A variety of fiction and non-fiction books.

Reading passport

My tissue holder instantly became the container of these!

It's certainly our day!

The guardians of the library haha!

Is it really a library? Or a garden? HAHAHA

The logbook of the borrowers

I love my whiteboard's flexibility! HAHAHA

A must-read corner!

WHEN THE CAT IS AWAY, THE MOUSE WILL PLAY! :)

Thanks to self-timer again! :)

That's all for now! :)

Her new world.

A teacher's world is the four-walled classroom. But what others are not aware of is her capability to transform this place into a time capsule, where she could take her students to a trip from the past, and an adventure to the future.

The abstract dream is really a concrete reality now.
I'm about to change more lives. :)

*A HEAVY BLOG POST*

This is where the circulars and calendar of activities SHOULD be placed. :)

Say HELLO to my malanding bulletin board! :)

Jonathan Livingston Seagull -LOVE.

STOPLIGHT!

“Really great people make you feel that you, too, can become great.”

THE EQ MAIL. You get the picture.

Bulletin board for the campaigns, core values, advocs, and welcome banner! :) Yes, it's TARPED. (It's a verb now. HAHAHA)

Adj: Very brilliant

Class Officers and 5S Supervisors (CLEANERS, so that it'll be more CLASSY! )

Another stop light! And the secretary's board. HAHA I don't know how should this area be called.

THE blackboard. I miss the whiteboards in UST EHS, though.

Reminders board! :)

TV and DVD player donated by SG 2006-2007, our batch! :)

I hope my students won't get too distracted with the sight of SMF- yes, straight from my classroom's window.

A view of the two big boards.

My new home. :)

Say hello to my little pantry. Cup noodles and Nescafe 3 in 1 are my superheroes whenever I forget to eat breakfast at home.

My cabinet was still half-empty when I took a picture of it. Now, I can no longer close it properly. HAHA

MY SEAT PLAN. :)

It 's made of velcro stickers, stick-ons, stick whatever!! So that I would no longer have to make seat plans every grading period. HAHAHA

HOW DO YOU LOOOK TODAY WALL

Here's how it works for me. I would close my eyes, and randomly point a picture, and that would define my feelings for that certain moment. 90% reliable. HAHAHA

My meeting notebooks!

Since I am supporting the LESS PAPER POLICY, I decided to divide my two notebooks into four. Level meetings, club meetings and meetings with my English and Health coordinators. I love the quotation that I put on the cover page: A teacher is like a candle; it consumes itself to light the way for others. " :)

THE teacher's desk! MY DESK! :) Actually it's a HUGE scrapbook hahaha

K. HAHAHA. When vanity strikes. THERE. HAHAHA

ECSTATICCCCC

MUST.

MS. ABELLA.

They have abolished the "TEACHER" and "CHER" here at SSA. When my students call me MS ABELLA, I feel like a 60-year-old grumpy librarian. SRSLY. But it's kyot. HAHA. Okay I'm bipolar!
