Hello students,
I FINALLY FINISHED MARKING,
YAYYYYYY :D
Tomorrow you'll start getting your papers alright? :)

Today and yesterday was the Harmony Bazzar, and it was pretty interesting. You might have seen me going around with a camera. :)
So here are some pictures, just to entertain you. :)

On the first day,

Top spinning.

The guys playing kaptek on the first day. I never really liked posed pictures, action pictures are so much fun!


I like this pose - he's playing like it's serious art.
This was on the second day, where they played with the bollah. Jumpers, they are.


Then I caught this picture of a very happy Glen and a kite. I happen to snap it randomly, and I like how it's turned out. It's like those advertisements that scream "Let your children out and play. They're still kids!"
Glen was very happy running around with a kite. :) Liked it? :)
Happy Racial Harmony Month! :)
Smiles,
Ms.Tan

It was a certain day,
that was turning to night.
The Sun turned away,
as He rushed to his appointment,
with the other side of the World.

Have you been looking at the clouds lately?
I have.

Dear Students,
I'm marking your Exam scripts now,
So you've got free time right?
COME HERE! :p

Haha, :)

This post is for Unit 10 - Case Study of Krakatoa in Indonesia. I'd probably start going through this Unit after exams. Do read up before I start it in class! It's a bit different from your other Units 'cause it's a case study. Very much like History. Because it is a case study, you have to know the nitty gritty facts to back up your statements in your exam papers (if ever it does come out in your exam paper.)

Krakatoa's eruption in 1883 was so massive that they made it into a movie! If we finish the syllabus early I think I might be able to show it.. hmmmm! sounds good?

So to help you along the way, here's some websites you can go visit!

Discover Krakatoa

I found this some time back, and I thought the anmation given is very good. Do go visit this website! It gives a step by step explainations and side facts about the 1883 and 1927 eruptions. Very handy, I like.

YouTube - World's Most Amazing Videos - Volcano Eruption
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fn7Dz6o-w7g&feature=related
This video shows a volcanic eruption, and it shows pyroclastic flows. I watched this and I got so very scared. Goodness, it's like a big, mean cloud ready to chomp you. :(

Dear Students,
It's 11 days left to the Geography Common Test.
Here's something to encourage you,

"The only difference between dreamers and doers is that doers are living the dream."

Be a Doer.
Please STUDY.
Love,
Ms.Tan

"Picture 079 (:
That mountain shaped land is actually a volcano. Can you believe that it erupted long longlong long time ago? Here is the proof ; see those black coloured land? Its hardened lava. It has been cooled down after long long long years and is there still molten lava underneath?
Picture 080(:
Look! At cresent shaped land! And there's that volcano again.

Picture 232(:
Ohh, thats me (: Don't look at me. Look at the sea ! There are foams ! Maybe this happens when water touches sand? Weird...

Picture 233(:
I said, Don't look at me! Look at the tides. Its sunset . Could it be high tide or low tide? Hmm?

Picture 236(:
Sorry Blocking the tide. This is the closer view of the tides (: although im blocking it. Haha.

Picture 237(:
This is a much closer view of the foams and look, there is a shoe-shaped rock! Look closely. All you need is a little IMAGINATION.

LoOk! Its Sunset! and guess WAD? Its near PASIR RIS CREST SECONDARY! Aint it nice?"

-----------------------------------------------------

Hope this is a small encouragement to the rest of you students out there!

Hello! :D
I shall try to blog every week, so that you'll have something to read hey ;)
Oh,oh! Hello to all my students I haven't said Hello to yet. :)


Here's a series of pictures from a certain place.
Can you guess where these pictures are taken from?

I think this is a Basin. I didn't realise there was a Basin in this place! But it was very serene.

These rocks you see here. Why is it red? Why is it split? I was so amazed to find this... and when I took it I told myself if I was to teach Geography, I'd use this picture... and I did.

This is one of my favorites, the Tree in the water made me feel like I was in the middle of some magical land.. it was so aesthetically yummy :)

So yes! Do try to guess where these pictures were taken!

NOTE TO ALL:
one: When commenting please write in your name and class!
two: anyone want to share a good picture? :) I'm all open! read the left had side for instructions aight.

Signing out,
Ms. Tan
