Reflection 1
Play Day !
On 18th February 2006 ; we the third year TESLians carried out a day full of games and the day was named as our ?Play Day?.
As a third-year university student majoring in TESL, I found the ?Play Day? very interesting. It illustrates how fun is English and how enjoyable to learn it. I am very sure that those who didn?t turn up on that day really missed out lots of fun. You don?t believe me?! Well you can ask those who were present !
We started the day at sharp 9 a.m. as planned. Our game (me & Diana), which was ?Drawing Blind?, started the ?Play Day?. We played a few other games facilitated by the controllers of the games. I enjoyed all the games. Even though there were some minus points but everyone contributed their best for the day. Thank you guys!
As for the parts that could be improved; the rules of the games could have been stated clearer with a simple demo (even I made this mistake), the facilitators should practice earlier on how to conduct the game and be more polite while reacting to the participants dissatisfactions. The main thing is the rules and regulations of the game must be made clear before the game starts not while the game is being played. You have to explain each and everything for these games are going to be carried out in our CAMP!
I personally enjoyed the ?Play Day? very much. All the games were interesting and fun-filled. I enjoyed playing these games; Whose Clues?, Guess It, Pitfall and The Pyramid Game. Finally, I really hope that we will unite as a team and towards the LANGUAGE CAMP !
One last thing that I wish to say is, I agree with the statement given by Fahmy about the unity among us. You are right Fahmy! I do have the same thought and quite disappointed. TESL is a course which is highly respected by others as far as I know?why don?t we strengthen our relationship by having the ?give and take? policy? We are future teachers and we should be open-minded and learn to tolerate with the people around us. There are only few of us and things will go really hard if we are not together.
Guys, I don?t mean to hurt anybody here. Just voicing out my thoughts, that?s all. I really hope that we will do our BEST for the Camp and all the best to all ! Lastly, I would like to thank Mr G for guiding us during the Play Day and gave comments about our game so that we will give the best at the Camp?Bye Guys.
