A time to plant and a time to uproot

Today, had the opportunity to have lunch with Mrs Wong and Mrs Phua again. These two ladies always make it a point to leave the Kindergarten together, today, I chose to join them. Of course that would mean bringing my work home to do. And while lunching, I saw Mrs Wong too, brought her students' work home to mark. She is a dedicated and detailed teacher, I must say.

The fellowship across the table was brief but fruitful. It was a good time of sharing. The subjects of course will evolve around the Kindergarten, the teachers, the principals, the children and the parents. Shared some tips with Mrs Wong as to how to tackle different situations as with regards to children and the parents. She is a very diligent lady and best of all, humble.

In the midst of the sharing, Mrs Wong assumed that my class is that well behaved because I have the privilege to follow them up from Nursery. Well, consistency is something we teachers must practise if we want the children to respect and obey us. We carry out what we say and we keep our promises. There is a time to praise and there is also a time to correct.

I enjoy my class very much. I wish .... they will be in good hands.

A time to plant and a time to uproot.

To plant foundation in them and to uproot myself, coz the seedlings in my very own yard need me.

Love,
Jesselyn
