Day 5 English Oral

This picture depicts a classroom. This so because there is a white board at the background with a Singapore flag on top of it. In the foreground, there are 3 students and a teacher at the table. I can tell that they are students since they are wearing uniforms, have a name tag with a badge and a neat hair do. The teacher is holding the string of the pulley system set up on the table. She is probably demonstrating to her students how the pulley system works. She is wearing a smile. This probably shoes that the teacher is enjoying her work of teaching teaching the students and want the students to learn. A student on the far right tilts his head to observe the pulley system carefully. This shows that the student is enthusiastic in learning. Also, the student beside him is writing down notes while looking at the pulley system. This shows that this student too, is enthusiastic about learning. There are other students at the background. This shows that they are probably also doing the science experiment. I believe that schools should have more hands on work to allow students to understand the topics in their syllabus better and to allow them to have an interest in the subject.

I like biology. It allows me to understand living organisms in our daily lives better. I like working with my hands. This is to allow me to understand the topic better since I have experienced it myself. For example, in biology class, my class was given real sheep hearts. This allows us to better understand how the heart works as we can see it with our own eyes. This beats memorising the contents from the textbook as it may turn out boring. I think it is better to learn from doing things than reading about them since first hand experience would allow the students to remember better.
