PKBS 3

I really should start posting other thingns about their school than tests, but it sometimes it seems that is all they do.

They have finally received back all their grades and class positions and Amjad came back with position #41, out of 43.

AAAAGGHHHH!!!!!

He came back that day, shut and locked himself up in my room, and cried his heart out. So that was sufficient punishment. It would've been no use for us to punish him further as he himself knew did way too badly for his own standard. And it would be counter-productive anyway, we're just going to look ahead and see what we can do to improve his grades.

Amjad, I'm reminding you of your promise that day:
a. to do much better next time
b. to listen when Ibu or Mummy teach at home.

and the bonus would be to wow everyone with an upward surge to the top 10.

others: Hania #17, Syazmi #6, Syakira #8.

they haven't received the detailed class results yet though.

d-days

poor kids, sitting for their first major exam is anxiety-filled enough, to have to deal with this too...

Syira's school had a slight hitch in that one girl decided to literally follow the exam time table. instead of being in school at 7:30 as usual, she came in at 7:50, 10 minutes before the exam time. And since all the students were told to gather in the hall before going to the exam rooms, everybody was anxiously waiting for her. But nothing to make the national headlines, alhamdulillah.

oh, the teacher was saying to them, "cikgu tau awak takut, cikgu lagi takut..." hmm.... I'm not sure this is quite what you want to hear from your teacher as a last-minute pep-talk.

it's BM pemahaman and BM penulisan and Math Paper 2 on Monday, Math Paper 1 Tuesday (the other time slots are for the SRJK students sitting for their respective Tamil or Chinese papers), and English and Science Wednesday.
