Plush Toy Workshop.

In simple definition, a plush toy is something like a teddy bear. According to dictionary.com, plush means
a fabric, as of silk, cotton, or wool, whose pile is more than 1 / 8  inch (0.3 cm) high.
During my degree days, I've always been interested in making diy things. I learn the craft from the internet, usually. I would draft what I want to do, find the materials and make them. Back when I was a shopaholic, I even sold the plush toys to get money so that I can buy new things :D
Anyway, a colleague of mine knows my interest and ask me to do a workshop in creating plush toys for the students of Kelab Usahawan. These are some photos of the whole event.
Students making the template for the plush toy.

Ta-da! One of the students' finished product.

Recycling.



This was a video I did for one of my classes. I used Windows Movie Maker and drew each of the frames on Photoshop. In simple words, students are to watch the video and jot down notes regarding the topic. They are then required to sit in groups and write an essay about recycling using the information they obtained from the video.

ICT Quiz - Poster.

Something I whipped up in 20-30 minutes for ICT class. I totally panicked!

Creating a simple poster.

Very basic poster but it achieved its purpose, I guess.

Creating a fun header.

The title that we chose for our website is 'Having fun with grammar'. Therefore, we wanted to inject the fun element in our header. After much discussion, this was what we came up with.

Personally, I do think it will attract students more. What do you think?

Hello!

Hello!
Hi. My name is Nabila and I work as an English teacher in a girls school in Alor Setar. Welcome to my blog.

We were required to create a blog using Blogger, and this is what I came up with. There's nothing much yet but I will work on that as the class progresses. Hopefully I will be able to do the required assignments brilliantly.

I hope to see you soon. Bye!
