As A home room teacher, my main duty are Preparing all the lesson and posting it in in the lesson plan, delivering the lesson according to the plan, checking and grading then writing a review on their Agenda. The most difficult one is Delivering the Lesson because it is not easy to manage 15 students and explaining the lesson in a " foreign Language" even touch their ability in understanding English is far better than students in National School, but I have to find a simpler English words to make them catch the ideas.
The biggest problem in teaching kids especially in Pre School age is how to get and maintain their attention. Kids can't concentrate on one topics more than -let's say- 4 minutes, and that's why if I keep talking and explain the lesson they will start talking or doing something. So the solution that I find is : less talking, do more Practice and have them do more physical exercise that will make more senses are moved. For example, 1 minutes explaining and let them do the exercise ( written) if they finish they can play around the class ( we provide some books and educational toys inside) or I will lead a story telling ( this is their favorite) use the Realia ( additional equipments such us small board or story books) or Singing and do more action!
As I can, I don't believe in Physical Punishment for the students. I think I don't have any right to pinch or bite them. I prefer to tell them their fault and make them confuse it as a wrong doing. So far, it works even tough they will re-do it everyday.. yeah, that is Children.. need a patience to change them. Children is still a children. If you can't handle them, then no need to be with them. They can't reach your understanding, but you can. That is my motto in handling them. So I always pray that God will give me more wisdom, patience and creativity in making them better and love to study in my classroom.
