Reflections about the School Visit

Last Thursday’s activity was very enriching for me as a teacher. The choice of the school for us to visit was very good. We went to Poveda for the said activity. The campus was like a monastery when you enter it and students seem to behave well. I asked one of their teachers if they behave the same way when no one is observing them and she said yes. I was laughing at Sir Cloyd when the baskets with eggs caught his attention. Students told that those were their babies and they are required to take care of them for two weeks. He was delighted with the idea that he would like to adapt the same activity with his topic about responsible parenthood. But he was quite worried because he wonders if our students could have the same response as the Povedan students. It was a challenge though but I’m planning as well to have the same activity with my class. Will I be able to motivate them as our counterparts did in their school? That may be a test for one’s skill as a teacher. But I’ll take my chances. If they can do it, so will I....
