Since my son's class began, I have grown even more worn out because I have to focus on his studies and this time, the travelling time is longer, which is really exhausting. There is a school nearby, but from the stories I've heard about it, I don't think their education is of the highest calibre. And because I only wanted the best for my child, I decided to enrol him in the same institution from which my siblings and I received our diplomas. The depth of the teaching is one thing I loved about this place. Because according to the poll conducted in our district, this school is among the best in terms of educational quality.
My son missed the social life with the other kids, the engagement, and the instruction from the teachers during the first week of his class. I'm confident that it's beneficial for him. However, as I stated in my last article, having blended learning or a modular class at home concurrently with some children starting school is still preferable. Because the pandemic hasn't ended yet, it appears that I really desire hybrid learning first.
Additionally, kidnappings and other crimes are on the rise once more in our country. My concerns are increased by the fact that many women and children are missing these past few weeks and months. Anyway, because I already expressed this in my last blog, I won't continue my complaint. But I sincerely hope that the face-to-face implementation will be changed once more. Online learning has gained widespread acceptance, so why not strengthen and improve it?
But first, allow me to tell you about my son's first week at school. Actually, I believe he is under too much pressure. I want to teach him everything that is being taught to him in school but at the same time, I feel bad for him because he has already spent six hours at school. And yet, he still needs to study when he gets home. When I do this, I believe that learning is no longer enjoyable and interesting, so every time we get home from school, I let him play his favourite games. And if he speaks, I'll give him the opportunity to talk about what occurred at school. In this way, I can assist him in not feeling pressed.

I've already noticed my son's improvement as of this week. He knows what to do when he needs to go to CR, and he can now fix his bag. I can also trust him to save money. However, I still experience certain difficulties, which I can see in my son. He occasionally forgets his tasks when he gets home. But since he's still young and I know he still needs guidance, I gave him some time to get used to the changes. I just told him what he needed to do in his classroom, and always listen to his teacher. I believe that at this age, we should focus more on developing children's moral ideals.
This type of learning in school is new for students since we've been locked up for 2 years and children doesn't have a choice but to engage on f2f class. I believe that the educational sectors should consider to revise the memorandum they implemented for the safety and betterment of stduents.
