Now class are usually normal cause we have seen the new teacher for a few days,was quite of boring,like we have seen Mr.Pan for 1 year.Back to the class,Mr.Chua told us to take out our literature files and put it facing downwards,facing the face of the table.He gave us some questions,5 seconds to think of the answer and then he calls out students to answer the questions given.After finishing the quiz,he gave out fresh new piece of worksheet to us,it was on the speech that Romeo said to Juliet.We were told to answer the few questions,like to count the Stanzas,the pattern of it,10 words in each sentence and we learn about IAMBIC.Quite a tiring day after the literature cause most of us were waiting for the bell to ring so that we could get out of the classroom and go happily for recess after 1 hour 30 minutes of study.Sad to bring it up,we were told to stay back and not to go home cause we have make-up lessons.Mr.Chua came in,told us to take our files and stationary down to the movers and shakers gallery.We can already guess that teacher will give us a piece of paper and must get the answers from the information on our founding Fathers.The purpose was to let us know what our founding fathers did to uphold justice,peace,equality and security of singapore,so that we will live in a safe and sound environment without worrying.

Today's class was much different cause there is another new teacher and she is inspecting our class looking at our behaviour,how our teacher teach us ,what is learned during the lesson and maybe i think she will become our new literature teacher.We greeted them as teachers and then she went back of the classroom and sat down in a corner quietly looking what Mr.chua is doing.Back to the class,Mr.chua return us the paper about religion and wanted us to do corrections.He came behind me and he asked the girl behind me,who was Veronica for her paper to show us as an example on how it was done.Amazingly,she get it all correct,wow.But i remember the week when the class hand up to Mr.chua the paper i wasn't around due to Herpes Zoster.After looking through,busy copying corrections,Mr.chua,again walked passed me and distribute the papers to 4 pupil and told them to hand it out.The new piece of worksheet is on IMAGERY on R&J.Teaches us and refreshed our mind on what have we learned last year like simile,personification which i learnt today and metaphor.The paper has included those three things that i mentioned and Romeo used those ideas to describe how beautiful Juliet is like she is as graceful as a swan.During the lesson,Mr.chua joke on us like he is saying himself very handsome and things like that and the class replied was like BOO or i don't think so.Although today's class was enjoyable,didn't had any dressing down or unpleasent thing that happen in class.But the homework given is a bit challenging as we must think of a paragrapgh or write something like Romeo to describe how their loved ones look like,describe it,beauty and so on.Finally before the class ends,teacher reminded us on when the homework on the mind maps must be submitted on Friday.

Yesterday,Mr.chua came in quickly.He setted his things and layed his laptop and the teachers table.Class was usually normal but yesterday was a bit different because teacher showed us a video of Romeo and Juliet as we are starting on a new story.The show was like between 5 to 10mins before teacher paused it and close it.Teacher then gave us a fresh piece of paper which was again about character traits.Index number 1to10 were to analyse Romeo,10to20 are Juliet well i was to analyse the character traits of Tybalt.From the video shown to me and the text where teacher want us to read,i can say that he is a vengeful and destructive person.Although i don't know what Romeo has did to offend their family but he is a kind of person who seeks revenge.I learnt that we should be more gracious but it has it's on limits,we should also forgive and forget others about what they had done to you or what they do to you in the last time.

Yesterday Mr.
chua came into class.We
greeted him and we sat down.He gave us a piece of paper which was on the story about Shylock and Portia.He gave us 10
mins to answer the three questions.I finished it very fast and was left with 5
mins.While waiting,i rested.The lesson was thought by the teacher splitting us into three big group.We read about the passage of Merchant Of Venice.After reading the conversations,Mr.
chua picked out three classmates to answer the three questions without seeing what we have written on our paper but through using our brains to think of the answer.We have learnt a few words like oath,perjury and the meaning of the BOND in the passage.Teacher gave us idea to improve our answers and have much more idea on who is bad and good.After answering the three questions from our three friends,teacher gave us another piece of paper and told us to read out the passage again which is on Shylock and Antonio talking to each other. Yesterday's lesson have helped me to understand and learn to be more merciful to one another and also not to insult other's religion or nock at them.It is important to uphold racial harmony.Yesterday i have read and saw the news about a pastor from the lighthouse evangelism insulting other religion.And the consequences are public apology.Before ending the lesson,teacher told us to take it as homework done.
