Learning Log 2

Well, this lesson was really an interesting one! When I first got the information that we had to surf the Internet for some superstitions, my mind was blank for a moment! In my head I was thinking, "What had superstions got to do with English or Literature?". After that our form teacher asked us to read up on our first play by Shakespeare which was Macbeth. Gosh, was I on cloud-nine! Finally we can do some acting and drama although I would much rather prefer the famously known Romeo & Juliet. However, I found out that I would also get a chance to act in it next term for our CA2. Lets' focus on the main thing here before I slowly stray away from it! Unfortunately, I failed to read Macbeth but was able to scoop out some cool bits on superstitions. The next day came and our smart Mrs Woo decided to use a function in her laptop that was able to pick numbers at random for some sharing on superstitions. I was literally praying that my register number would not come up! I found out that many superstions relate to a variety of religion. The thing that came next was really fun! Mrs Woo used the same 'random pick' function in her laptop to call out the people who would act the opening chapter of Macbeth as the three witches! When they tried to act the scene out with a voice of a witch, I was trying really hard to contain my laughter but it was to no avail. That particular lesson was pretty hilarious! Soon I realised that Macbeth had something got to do with superstions like 'witchcraft' and 'sorcery' i guess.

Overall, I enjoyed the lesson and I think so did the others from 2CMT. This is all thanks to Mrs Woo for the smooth delivery of the lesson and also making it come to life! In my opinion, working in groups for the discussion really helps us bond with others and it was really a great feeling sharing different type of information with each other. To Mrs Woo, as a teacher you did really well! I hope you can keep making each of your lesson alive!

I had been pondering this for a while but my mind just cannot think of anything. As long as the lesson was entertaining and smoothly delivered in detail, I think everything would be fine I guess...
