This is the third group meeting of the year. This time, we met in the school library. Having not much to do on our hands at the time, we started to discuss various interesting ideas for the project. After discussion, brainstorming and thinking of ideas and we soon came to discussing the library system in Chao Yang School. As time went by, the ideas turned a plan to improve the library system of Chao Yang School as an expansion to our current project which was to develop a resource package. Later we sent an email to the staff to ask them if this plan was feasible and whether we can carry it out. Besides discussion about the possible expansions, we also did some minor changes and editing to our blog to improve it.
After our lunch break, we met up with our teacher mentor, Mrs. Lim to discuss about our literature review – the content, various interesting issues, important points to take note of. The family background of the students, information about Chao Yang School, perspectives public has about the intellectually challenged – all of these were important points in our literature review. Mrs. Lim also shared some of her heartwarming first-hand experiences with the intellectually challenged, which really touched our hearts.
If the proposal for our expansion is accepted, then we will have a lot more responsibilities and work to do, meaning that we will have to work doubly as hard. We hope that the improvement of the Chao Yang school library will really be meaningful to the students there and can nurture their interest for reading.
Bryan
