Today, I conducted my lesson at the grandstand.

realising a small wish to bring my students outside the classroom

actually, rationally speaking, conducting lessons at the grandstand isn't as effective as having lessons in the classroom because you waste so much time trying to get those rascals to settle down and listen to you. also, instruction delivery isn't as smooth because the very fact that they are enjoying the cool breeze and nicer scenery means that they won't be paying 100% attention

but i felt good. because i feel sometimes you have to waste time in order to save time. it's a lesson about innovation after all. and one should do something novel in order to bring the message across.

and ten years from now, while they might have forgotten about what they actually learnt in my class, i hope they would remember that once upon a time, mr heng threw caution to the wind and did something fun.

getting the retainees to brainstorm on ideas for a GP question was also spontaneous and fruitful.
