Recess week session

Hi all,


This is supposed to be a post on sessions during the recess weeks, but it is loo...ong over-due because I am busy waging war with various mid-terms and projects. So finally by now, most of us would have already finished our mid-terms. (Or did the mid-terms finished you guys, anyway it's over...)


So back to session.


Have you tried talking with your hands, or listening with your eyes?
For the session during recess week, the boys were taught on how to use sign language. After learning the basic alphabets, they were asked to spell out words using sign language for their group members to guess. And trust me it wasn't easy, at least for a slow learner like me. You had to look at the hand gesture and relate it to one of the twenty six possibility available. By the time I figured out whether the first letter is a "T" or a "K", he had already finished spelling out the whole word. But luckily for us, we had expert Yeh Lin in our group, and this was a piece of cake to him. He reads sign language as fast as reading a book.


It was an interesting and fun session. Something new and not tried before. Maybe next time we can try morse code or even cryptography.


Okay back to projects. Bye~


Cheers,
Darren
