*Farewell Jeong Bin
It has been a great pleasure to teach you. It's a pity that I cannot see you through to Secondary School which I believe you will do very well for PSLE. I hope you have enjoyed your stay and learning journey in Singapore, Zhenghua Primary School and 6 Diligence. Wish you all the best in your future endeavours. Be good and study hard! Hope to hear from you again.

  13. To Ching Wei:
    I tried to read between the lines. It should b: Education is not meant to b a some sort of "thing" that is just to make people feel good about what they had achieve, but to inspire someone to do something better.. Should b.

  14. to jiaru: I really dun understand what you mean

    ReplyDelete
  15. I have to agree with Yue Ling's explanation of the quote. That's why I didnt want to explain Ching Wei's quote when I first saw it. It should be from you wanting to find out what does it mean. In this way, you will find learning more meaningful. It's never good to spoon feed someone. We should always have a passion for learning and wanting to find out more. Be inquisitive! So has your passion for learning ignited? :)

    Bobby had some red and blue stickers.
    If 72 red stickers were removed, the ratio of the number of red stickers to that of the blue stickers would be 1:2.
    If 180 blue stickers were removed instead, the ratio would become 5:1.
