Hi Everyone,
Since we returned to school two weeks ago, we had to take our temperature twice a day. Some of the pupils could not return to school because they were on leave of absence. Our remedial, CCA and other activities have been cancelled or postponed. In this week's reflection, I would like you to discuss how all these have affected you. I have listed some questions below to help you with your reflection:
1. What do you think of the school's preventive measures for H1N1 such as temperature-taking, no assembly in the hall, cancellation of remedial lessons, CCA and other activities?
2. Which activities have affected you?
3. How has the cancellation of these activities affect you in your learning?
4. Do you think the school is less interesting now? Why?
5. Are you relationship with your friends and teachers affected? If 'yes', in what way/s?
6. What do you do with the extra time you have now?
7. Are you activities outside school affected?
My answers:
1)I think because the school is afraid that one of the students in the school got H1N1 so they will do this.
2)High Acheivers and CCA.
3)It never affected me in my learning.
4)Yes, the CCAs are suspended and now is less boring.
5)I do not think that it affects my relationship with my friends and teachers.
6)Sometimes, I do homework, play computer games or watch television programmes.
7)It is not affected.
