Today brought 2 students to SP to take part in a competition. So few contestents as compared to last year. Only a few schools taking part this year. But competition was keen. We could see the other students still busy studying their textbooks and notes given to them by their teachers while our students were busy talking.
We teachers also took up the challenged and tried to answer the questions ourselves. Well, we didn't get full marks ourselves, but if we took part we sure win. So we were joking that if we wore school uniforms and went to take part nobody would know too. hmmm....
Well, we didn't win the top 5 prizes of DNA amplification kits, PCR kits, DNA isolation kits, micropipettes and digital camera. But I can say we got the consolation prize... haha... During the 'audience participation' session, we teachers were writing down all the answers for the students to answer. It's basically spelling and you have to rush to the microphone to answer. So we managed to booked the seats near to the microphone, so we won the most prizes. Nothing great, just notebooks. (not the laptop notebooks ok... it's the paper notebook) But we feel proud that we got the most... HAHAHA....
What's important is never the result... I think we learned a lot from this competition. The students got exposed to vocabulary and information that their peers and classmates would not have heard about, and even learn some basic knowledge of the chapters they're going to learn next year. So they can become assistant teachers ya?
But the organisers said they might end this series of competition soon. How can? Not after I realise that they recycle like 60% of their questions and I copied down almost all the the questions in the competition! At least have one more year.... please.... =P
