Fun Time

 
                 Enjoying our time with the special needs students who filled the air with love 💖, positive attitudes, and laughs 🤣. You can't imagine how euphoric they owned the world 🌍at that moment.
I was so engaged wit them all, jumping, dancing, singing, climbing, and whatever comes to your mind. yup, they are different but never to compare because they don't let you do so, they are always surprising us with what they know and how to clarify their points LOVE them all.😍

fatoshti

       Fatima and her love for octopus from the first sight 😍 she recites his song watching it on you tube. In love with her way of talking and soft sound. 😄

Rahofti 😙

Rahaf 😍, my gorgeous neice. She is of me, I love her personality, strength, confidence, linguistic usage of words older than her age. Everytime I drive her with me rather than all other neices and nephews. 

Neices 😍

Learning in and by nature is essential in educational process, sitting in the class is one way of learning. My neices were so happy 😁 playing with soil, throwing, digging, and making shapes and guessing what, so much fun. They were singing and calling others to join them, I found them so engaged, I came close and felt how they are excited with full attention that's because they chose it. We can include the learners in the type of practice to do and we will find a difference in their understanding and awarness of the necessity of being part of the class 😌 they know, let us them feel it then we are going to be amazed by their brilliancy 😎. Next time they came, Fatima, in red, directly went down to the garden to continue playing and discovering new things, Learning what they need to know, not we want to teach, so it's their needs not ours.

If We Know

            If we know the importance of the knowledge that is available for us easily and in our hands in one press, we wouldn't leave a moment without grasping every point and benefiting from it. It takes time and a lot of it actually, but can you compare yourself with and without this knowledge, definitely and huge difference in the way of thinking, perceiving things, analyzing, solving problems of life from the smallest point to the highest. I mentioned this because I touched it myself during my career and specially this year when I decided to continue my studies. The world of education is so wide, but we have to upgrade it continuously and independently not waiting anyone to push us forward, this needs intrinsic motivation; this helps a lot in changing your view to your job to the second bank of the river. Personally, if I took the TD courses before my teaching life would be far better than what I had, specially since I started, the information wasn't ready any moment I need. So, just take the advantage of what you have and never still silent saying I don't know, or why to bother this is them, no way to change and other terms we always hear from teachers and anyone in charge. Everything can be done and achieved if you have the will to grow and develop;
           

Grade 8 Girl

           I was connected with eight grade girls whom I knew since they were in grade two. There was this girl who used to be a bright one that attracted me with her witness and smartness, meeting her again was a nice thing for me; day after day I realized her enthusiasm specially in writing is down and didn't want to give it a try, I always asked her, " What is going on?" "Why don't you want to write?" " I know you can do it.", but she didn't give a reasonable reason till one day I asked them to write a narrative essay about something bad happened with them; Here she wrote me why she had changed. " They used to make a contest in Arabic for speech in the school, she had the priority to share every time but that teacher chose her daughter; that upset her and her friends a lot and decided never to share or give it time since it is known who will share; here I made up my mind and decided to keep trying because I believe in her, I left her a note at the end of her essay. I encouraged her to read and write whatever comes to her mind and never to let ant one put your dreams and abilities down; this hint was the fruit at the end of every piece of writing from me to her and vice versa, we enjoyed the idea, and till now we are in touch that helped her a lot in writing and expressing herself freely.
