Delusional feverish rant... (had a small fever lastnight and tonight)
So some students got bopped today, "not the bebop and rocksteady" chemical bro's bop, with the hammer. we lost 4 of the students this morning when they had to be removed from class after suffering severe concusions. Yep, promoting violence with a correctly answered english question is just some of teh side effects of my teaching methods. But I fear when I am gone the bopping may stop, or subsist on a level such that it is barely remembered or honoured. Its so sad to know now, that this might be the last chance students may ever recieve the bopping of a lifetime. So my solution? Bop now and talk later. Next week i'm gonna try it out with nunchuks.
(On a side note,)Hmm I think nunchucks would be a good prize to give out during an English corner English contest .
As for my room its still as dry as a dessert, lucky to the drain in my bathroom. Some of you might remember my toliet does not have running water, so I ahve to fill a pail up with water, and the douce the toilet. (Which allows for doing only number 1, and sometimes.. if lucky, a watery number 2.) Well after doing my business this morning, I started to fill the pail with water from a shower head. Well it takes several minutes to fill, so I'm not going to sit there and wait, I go back into my room to prep for classes. So I did that, and left the room with the water running. *Gasp*, so hence I am very much appreciative of the drain in my bathroom. Otherwise this is the SECOND time I would have flooded my room.
I also had a really cool idea for running a school, particularly in the assessment of students achievement on tests. There would be a completely new grading system, which would be designated as follows: On a test of perhaps 50 or so questions, if one would get one question wrong, they would be graded as 'stupid' and serious attention would have to be exerted on the student for them to improve. Now if they got 2 questions wrong, well .. hmmm, they would be what I would call a BH. or beyond and hope. There is no reason why I should keep such a student with such low grades and motivation. 3 or more wrong... captital punishment, well hence it would only work in the states and other captital punishment abiding states. But if they got perfect, on every test they would recieve a 'not too bad' stamp of approval on their certificate. Why waste valuable ink and space on a degree or diploma with "honours? or bachelor?". Of course with this system I fear that not very many students would suceed, so in order to pay the bills and live a luxurious lifestyle, I would have to charge exorbiantly high prices. The few that make it, will know for the rest of their life, that they are 'not half bad'. Any more delusional ideas?
Oh I was thinking of naming the English club I started here yesterday, "The club for students who want to read english good, and do other things good too"
