Today, I visited Banting Middle School for TOKTWD (take our kids to work day)!

(Inside the Banting gymnasium while the teachers explained part of a project, 12:22~)

I followed mainly four teachers around the school, observing and lending them a hand. I spent most of my day wandering between classes and helping the teachers with kids, or running quick errands.

• What about the environment would motivate you to wake up every day to attend work?
  • The things that would motivate me the most to wake up and get ready to attend work are that I could spend my day with younger kids, who think and act in immature yet fun ways. I had plenty of fun spending the day helping others out, with math and running an leisurely errand for a teacher.

•  What about the environment would discourage you from waking up every day to attend work?
  • The thing that would discourage me the most from waking up every day to attend work would be that school is very chaotic. There are people who need constant attention and those who are causing a ruckus and being loud. To have to repeat that five days a week is impressive. Nearing the end of school, I felt exhausted and excited to go home and relax.

Please comment,
