Teacher Motivation 3 - Evaluation

Evaluating a student goes beyond the report card. The report card measures only what a student has done. You must evaluate where the student is and where he can go. Learn to read your students. What are they working on today?Oh!,that doesn't mean what their classroom assignment is. What are they working on inside their minds? Their hearts?

What is the main concern? Of course , for the most part that is the RM1000000000 question. If you were a mind reader, you probably wouldn't be in the teaching profession. You might be concentrating on the lottery!

But in one sense, you are a mind reader. Your daily interaction with you students has given you great insights into what motivates them - and what completely turns them off. Over time, you learn to read their faces.

Once you can read them, you must then lead them. Where do they need to grow?Where do you want them to go? How will you utilize the knowledge you have gained by reading their countenances and behaviour.?

MARKING SCHEME FOR ENGLISH PAPER 2 (PMR 2012)

I have made changes to the existing PMR marking scheme to fit the latest format as there are a few changes made in paper 2 PMR English language. However, this marking scheme is not the official marking scheme from KPM or LPM. This is a marking scheme that I altered from the old one. If there is an official marking scheme for the latest format, I will share it here.Please click the link below to download the marking scheme that I have uploaded. Any suggestions to improvise the marking scheme will be welcomed.

Teacher Motivation 2 - Determine to love the unlovable

There is one in every class; that one student who tries your patience, wears on your nerves, and makes you wonder why you ever became a teacher. Unteachable, unbearable, unlovable - those are the words that will run through your mind. Think again. It really is worth the time to consider the cause behind that child's effec. That unruly student may be a 'prisoner of war.' Yon do not know the raging wars that he or she may be facing = a tortured home life, emotional pain or physical illness.

Unlovely?? Perhaps. Unlovable? Never. That "problem child" is a child of God, the focus of His bes affection. According to the Bible, He cared enough to sacrifice His own Son for the spiritual welfare of that one child.

Pause for a moment and pray for an infusion of compassion. It could just be that the "unlovable" is looking for love - and you just might be the source! At least in your heart, you can give that unruly student a new status: loved, understood, and worthy of honor.

For Heaven's sake, don't give up on that child.
