some of our stories...

udah mo 2nd season kuis 'are you smarter than the 5th grader'
anak" udah mulai berkomentar
"Miss. A, why it's 5th grader? why it's not 2nd grader? we can't be in that show then"

salah satu temannya nyeletuk:
"what about we start applying for the show now? i believe it will take ages to be in the show. Perhaps when we're in year 5, we can be easily in the show. Is that right, Miss. A?"

ada celetukan lagi:
"what about Miss. A starts applying to be the contestant as well? by the time she gets in, we also get in. What do you think, Miss. A?"

yang laen berkomentar gini:
"Miss. A..just wondering.. how much money will you get if you're in that show? do you think you'll get the first prize (alias AUD500K hahaha). As a teacher, you should be able to answer all the questions, shouldn't you, especially when it comes to primary school questions?"

saya cuma senyum..sambil berpikir juga ya....rasanya rada susah buat ngejawab semua pertanyaan di kuis itu =) seriously, i've never heard about some of the questions..how can i answer it if i don't even know what they are about? *excuse bangeeet yaaa hahahaha*

kadang" mereka suka muncul dengan obrolan" yang ga kepikiran

salah satu session di hari selasa sore adalah gross motor, mulai dari warming up, main activity, sampe cooling down...

salah satu game yang paling digemari adalah Octopus and Shark..(buat temen" yang dulu sekolah di Palembang, mungkin tau ama yang namanya permaenan cabut....mirip" gitulah cara maennya)...

anyway..bukan itu yang mo di highlight...

ceritanya buat cooling down..kita relaxing..dengan lagu dan anak" tiduran di rumput playground. sambil menyuruh anak" nutup mata dan ngebayangin kalau mereka ada di tepi pantai, tiduran, minum lemonade, dengerin lagu kesayangan sembari ada suara ombak di belakang mereka, dll

setelah kurang lebih 15mins kami bercooling down ria, saatnya untuk kembali ke kelas. anak" satu persatu mulai beberes..kecuali satu anak...

dia cuma diem aja. saya bingung. sampai beberapa anak ngomong:
"Miss. A, i think she felt asleep. I tried to wake her up but she was still asleep"

saya setengah ga percaya...sambil jalan ke arah si kecil dan mencoba mengguncang bahunya..dan Gee weeez....dia kaget, kebangun dan kebingungan....

ternyataaa.....dia memang ketiduran sewaktu kami menikmati semilir angin di playground tadi..walaaaaah!!!

cerita lain lagi:
setiap 15-20 mins sebelum bel pulang, kami udah mulai beberes kelas, mulai dari packing, cleaning the class, and stacking the chairs up...
saya sering banget ngomong:
"i'm afraid it's time to pack and stack, children. please our class clean, tidy, and spotless"

suatu hari, salah satu murid saya yang pendiaaam setengah mati tiba" ngomong gini:
"come on, guys...just think yourself as a vacuum cleaner...zoom zoooom. (dia niruin suara vacuum ceritanya).....cleaning cleaning...no rubbish anymore..make Miss. A proud of us..."

mereka memang sering muncul dengan surprise menyenangkan =P...that's why being in the class is such a privilege for me...kami seperti bermain dan belajar dalam waktu bersamaan..
