CAS activity - Yr.10 Media II

I helped with the year 10 media yesterday, on the last two lessons, where they have a double class. The students asked if I was going to be a teacher assistant, I said I am going to be a helper for ms talisa and since their class is so big and I know most of them I would like to help. I noticed right a ways that they don't pay attention, of what ms Talisa was saying. Even through out year 11 we did it too but we knew better and didn't disrespect the teachers, when they asked us once, to put something a way we did it, because they wanted us to understand of what the task will be.

I went behind some of the students and kicked their chair, not to loud or too hard but enough to make them look up. I stared and them and pointed at their phones, wanting them to put their electronics away. I was annoyed that this group of year 10s just don't care what ms telisa has to say about the task, because later on they didn't know what to do and I had to help them. I don't know why year 10's don't have TOK and learn the studies of organization and responsibility of how they act and behave. I was so glad spending so much time at Kemang, that at the secondary it was a piece of cake, since at the primary the kids are more hyper and a little difficult to control. I knew how to handle the year 10s even so they were a year younger then I am, its like handling the primary kids but at least year 10 know that they can get detentions if they don't do their work.

So I went around and helped out the kids looking for magazine covers for their next project, that I remember from last year. With the girls picking a cover was more difficult because the photos they were thinking of doing were not appropriate for this assignment, as the photos exposed the girls skin to much or that the clothes are to short or to showy of certain areas or position that the covers where posed. The girls didn't understand why, with the clothing, they couldn't understand. I noticed that they were not taught or noticed that they live in a country that they do not expose a lot of skin or dress in shorts.I think the girls need to be reminded upon this for their safety and well beinging.

With the boys they were easier since that magazines showed that they were in dress suites or some causal. Though I caught some looking at...Playboy covers and I told them to get rid of them. I was not pleased with one in pictuarl, but I am not going to name names because of privacy and to save face. I am not that kind of person who tells everyone of what one did. I just wait at the end of class and give the teachers feed back.

I like helping out the students and I gave them feedback and suggestions of what they can do and told them some magazine names of teen magazines which are fun. I also told them that they can do their covers in their own language, also since their is one girl who has a headscarf (I don't know her religion) and I didn't want her to lose face and go against her religion beacuse of a school project.

Thank you,
Ms telisa for letting help out the year 10s
