It was quite common for me to have relief class during Latihan Ikhtisas<\/a>.\u00a0 Sometimes, I had few relief classes almost every day.\u00a0 At first, I didn’t know what to do during relief class other than “following” the normal practice i.e. let the students do their own work.\u00a0 But after some time, I decided to do some activities (with rewards).\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Among the activities that I would do was spelling bee and trivia (quiz about general knowledge) but for form 3 and form 5 students, I would normally ask the teachers if they had handouts that they want me to use when I had their relief class and we would have discussion after that.\u00a0 In a way that, I would end up teaching the students.\u00a0 \u00a0I did these few times and later on the principal and the GPK knew about it and thus,<\/span> I would end up taking ALL relief classes for English regardless of the forms.\u00a0 For examination classes i.e. form 3 and form 5, I would normally assign to do revision exercise with them for grammar, writing, literature and such.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Normally, what I did was if I knew in advance that I would be given a relief class, sometimes I would book the computer room and did activities using Quizziz such as online trivia.\u00a0<\/a> Of course, some students were hesitated but I normally would reward those who got the right answer etc. with chocolates.\u00a0 The funny thing was sometimes when the students knew that they would get a relief teacher on certain time, they would ask me if I would be the relief teacher because they wanted to “play English game”.\u00a0 Yeah right!\u00a0 The power of positive reinforcement.\u00a0 Indeed.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
