It's 2018 already. There're many things I've been through since my last post in this blog (re: 2012). I was still in undergraduate program at that time (Universitas Negeri Padang). Time indeed flies. At present, I've got my master degree in English Language Teaching (Universitas Negeri Malang). My life in Malang was just so amazing. It has left over a lot of memories I will always keep in mind.

In this 6th semester, I have a class of EYL (English for Young Learners). In the beginning, we learned about the development of socio-emotional, cognitive, and moral of young learners. We learned deeply about how to teach them later. We also have made the teaching materials for the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade of elementary school. For our mid-term test, we were asked to do observation in one of elementary schools. We were asked to observe their developmental stage of socio-emotional, cognitive, and moral. My group observed an elementary school in isolated area in Batang anai. We took the photos above in the observation. We learned many things there. we also had fun and played with the students there. This observation will be presented in our mid-term presentation test at the end of this April. We hope to do our presentation well. Wish us luck ^^
