Had a fun session during Malay Curriculum workshop @ Learning Capital(LCI). At least it was a non-sit_down - cum - copying_notes_only event. Just 12 of us including the trainers (Kak Anizah, Kak Su & Kak Rabiah). The trainers were graciously informal, lively and fun-loving sorts. We all (including the trainers) were trying our darndest to speak in Malay... proper Malay.. no mixing with english, singlish watsoever. There was a Malay teacher representing one of the LV centres who was a Chinese and surprisingly (and embarrassingly to me) spoke a much better Malay than all of us in the room put together..

We had the music & movement where we went down the memory lane wif all the children's nursery rhymes and folk songs.. "burung kakak tua" & "enjit² semut" received the much needed revival when we choreographed the dance steps to the great hilarity. We also had the cookery session where we made honey cornflake cookies and fruit salads. Except, there was no stove-cooking/oven-baking were involved in the process. At the very end, we were assigned to put up learning centres based on different theme we chose, get this, in ONE hour. The great challenge; this wasn't informed beforehand and we had to construct things like decor & teaching aids literally from scratch...My other 4 team mates are like magic-workers.. they could come up wif lots of interactive teaching materieals in that short a time.. real proud of them! Lemme see.. maybe i can find the pix from the learning centres somewhere and put them up here as e-momentos...
