So yea, signed up for some read to reach CIP some time ago and today was the briefing. Basically reading to 4 to 6 year old kids under NTUC childcare co-operative (yes they are a co-operative) who might be reading at risk, meaning they don't really have a chance to read much and as such might not be able to catch up with their peers when they start schooling.
Anyway, part of the briefing cum training was how to handle kids... and haiz.. so sad. It's (nearly) all about manipulating them and bluffing them. Ok lol.. nono, we're not that evil, it goes something like this:
Say the book you reading got character called John. Then the kid you reading to get's distracted and tells you about some holiday he went on. So you're supposed to act interested yet divert his attention back to the book by saying something like "Oh that's nice, did you see John there? No? Well let's find out where John went shall we?"
Lol.. here's another example.
Kid: *points to cat* "Why is this a cat?"
You: "Hmmm.. I'm not too sure either. Why don't we read on to find out?"
Er... so where does the wee wee and poo poo come in? Well, er... it's just in one of the books which are meant to be read to kids... Lol.. stupid wen hao anyhow pick the dunno wat potty for girls one for me to read to jian wei. Then in the end, a pair of girls were reading the for guys version... aloud to the whole class... <>.<>
Ok, my blogging's a little out of style lately and I really don't like the wee wee and poo poo thing and so er.. I'll end with "... Chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum." Now, would you like to say that with me?
