Booksharing in English

“Today is a first time to we to do Booksharing in English” said Miss Lisa (our English teacher) last Thursday in morning march.

Yes, last Thursday was the first Booksharing session in English. Before this, we did do booksharing in Bahasa by the students and also the teachers. This is new program in our school.
Miss Lisa told the story from the book “27 Cerita Hikmah Aa Gym”. There were some stories in this book but miss Lisa only took one story abaut time management. There was a boy. He was a student. He didn’t like math and physic. He said that he didn’t like math because he didn’t like the teacher. And he didn’t like physic because the number and the formula make him confused. So he made a decision to join the drawing class.

After the drawing class, he had a good spirit to paint. One Night, he made some painting but he ran out of crayon. He thougt he couldn’t enjoy drawing if he didn’t have a crayon so he went to supermarket and bought some crayon. He went back home but after he arrived home he thought it can be better if he colud have some snack and drink. He went back again to supermarket and bought some snack. He bought some coffee because he had a plan to paint till midnight.

He arrived at home at 10pm. It was late at night. So he didn’t continue painting. He didn’t get something that night because he spent his time to think a small thing.

I hope we can get something usefull from this story.

Berbagi Cerita Buku 2

Herri Darmanto siswa kelas VII a yang berasal dari Batam tapi sekarang tinggal di Padang yang mendapat giliran berbagi buku pada hari Selasa kemarin. Tanpa malu-malu Herri membagi pengalaman membaca bukunya. Yang membuat saya cukup kagum adalah cara berbicara Herri yang sangat teratur dan dia hafal dengan tepat tanggal lahir serta nama-nama tokoh yang ada didalam buku tersebut.

Herri membagi cerita buku dari Komik Biografi Isaac Newton seorang fisikawan yang berasal dari Inggris. Herri menceritakan bahwa sejak kecil Newton tinggal dengan neneknya. Pada umur 18 tahun, Newton kuliah dan tinggal disana. Banyak penemuan besar yang ditemukan oleh Newton salah satunya adalah mengenai hukum grafitasi yang ia teliti setelah mengalami peristiwa kejatuhan apel saat Newton sedang duduk di bawah pohon apel. Dari cerita ini Herri mengambil hikmah bahwa seharusnya kita seperti Newton, saat kejatuhan apel kita tidak hanya berfikir apel ini enak gak ya? Tapi marilah kita berfikir seperti Newton, Kenapa apel ini bisa jatuh kesini ya?
Dewasa sekali ya... Semoga dapat diambil hikmahnya.
