Leaving my current duty school

I'm going to leave my current duty school where I have taught for six years to work at a different one.
My days here were filled with children's impressive growth.
I'm grateful for the support by their parents and local people.
This week I have quite a bit of work to transfer my duties to a new teacher, and also have a farewell party.
From April, I am supposed to work at a large-scale elementary school which is in the city I was born and grew up.
Based on my experience which I have developed last 12 years over three different schools including the 6 years of this current one, I'll work hard at the new place.

My students' graduation and completion ceremony

This week my students' graduation and completion ceremony was over as planned.
My students grew up.
They and their parents looked glad.
Last night I participated in  the farewell party of our school.
The party gave me a chance to feel how happy I am to be able to work with the teachers of our school and help the students to grow up.
Well then,  I will make my effort as this week is the last working of this school year.
Have a good week!

Studying willingly

Last week,  I took a few hours off from work and went to parents' day at my daughter's school.
She seemed to be learning happily and I felt relieved.
At home she has become to study what she needs voluntarily, such as reading texts aloud, Kanji and math drills, as well as homework.
I and her teacher have been encouraging her in the same way, now she works on studying willingly.
I am grateful to her teacher.
I will keep encouraging not only her but also my students so that they may keep having the will that they learn by themselves.
Well then, I will make my best effort as the last two weeks of this school year.

Writing my students’ report cards

I’ve finished writing my students’ report cards for the third semester. I described  what effort they made and how much they could achieve the aim of each subject. In each term, I write the report cards and review my style of teaching and my level of support to the students. Writing the report cards is the good way to check what more I can do for my students. Students have put a lot of effort into studying, so I’d like to improve my teaching skill.

Skiing on fresh snow

Last Sunday, after the blizzard, my daughter and I enjoyed skiing on fresh snow. This slope is near my apartment house. The slope is located next to the base of the Self-Defense Forces called "north military unit". There is no lift here. So we walk up the slope. It's a good practice place for a beginner skier like my daughter.

It's March!

It's March! At the school I'm teaching, I would like to give my students great supports every day so that they can still learn and grow until their graduation and ceremony of completion.
At my home, I will improve life rhythms of my daughter and me.
I should go to bed early, become an early riser, and cook nutritious dishes which are good for balanced diet.
