Week 3: Let's get started!


"You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." - Zig Zagler

 The first two weeks were not a bad start. However, an improvement is important in order for all of us to achieve better results. Last week was semester break for UM students, so there's no activity being held. For this week, we reminded our foster sisters and brothers to bring their parents' information such as their e-mail, full name and date of birth to create an account. We were being taught on the features available on the web page beforehand. Thus, it won't be a big problem for us to teach the kids later on.


The above is the progress chart that can be obtained from Adani’s account. We started our activity for this week by creating a student account for our foster sisters and brothers. Steps on how to register the account were shown. After creating the account, I decided to give Adani a tour on the site such as showing the notes available, teaching her how to do the assessments, guiding her on how to check her progress chart and games that she can play after getting the rewards for answering the questions correctly. I forgot to teach her the features that can be used when making the notes like adding videos and sticky notes. I will try to teach her those features next week.

We played musical chair right after. Huda won the game! Even though my foster sister didn't win the game, I was happy to see their enthusiasms while playing the game. We also did the currently famous "panama dance" and played a few other games that were requested by our foster sisters and brothers. About my foster sister, Putri Izz' Adani binti Anuar, she is a standard six student from Sekolah Kebangsaan Satu Sultan Alam Shah. What I managed to get to know about her is that she is one of the triplets in her family. The other two of the triplets who were in other groups look alike while ...

Week 5: The journey goes on

"Live every moment like it's your last." There’s not much to prepare for this week as the activities are just basically doing assessment and playing games in ilearnace.com. Compared to the past few weeks, this week is basically more to doing assessments. Besides, next week is the last week for our program. Our session for this week was at the Cube. Nothing much was going on. We talked about how our weeks went on. Right after that, we started our lessons. I taught her on questions that she can’t answer and those questions that she got wrong. In addition, she still made a few careless mistakes when answering the questions. I hope that she will be more meticulous after this.
