Ntozakhe- One Goat Is Enough

#storiesofourown

One Goat is Enough was recommended to me by a dear student.

¨I know you, I've heard you talk; I think you might enjoy this or hate this, have a read¨, she said.
And I did, all...

It takes one through a lot of emotions: anger, sadness, frustration, disappointment, pride....
All these emotions relating to the stories of our women; some I've heard of,
some I've met and some I'm yet to meet...
I live with some, was birthed by one and escaping from one

I include this book through my life story as women issues of being belittled, taken for granted,
not being recognised, working to be expected to give all of you,
the servantry expectation and loss of women's names down generations

being named what doesn't recognise you as own; what will reject you for their own.

I refer to male power that is instilled in men from young
such that there is a phrase of behaviour we all have to succumb to called:

he is a man.

Our lives through...

It is is with great pleasure and power for me to introduce my girls to the art of storytelling. Stories personal to their contexts and beings; who they are, who they have been, ought to be, want to be, need to be... Because in all fact, all those categories may be totally different viewed in or/and of isolation. Students should not be fed, simply, but exposed to food for the soul, both from their peers and those who have gone past and the living. Most of all students should make their own food; what best way than through stories. This half term my grade 9's are telling their stories through different media in topics such as: life through movies life through people we have and have not met life through music life through books life through poetry etc...

FUTURE ORIENTED LEARNING

Sharing progressive learning and teaching skills Through teaching languages and through Google educational suite I realised that simply getting a 100% for an assigned task wasn't enough and that the work done by students needs further recognition. It can't just end with my red pen, ticks or mark. What happens to all those documents reflecting on social issues, the poem the songs created, the essays written? How can we teach and learn progressively and empowering students as they grow in our hands: future focused learning? #GlobalEducator #FutureOrientedLeader #AgentOfChange Future oriented learning and teaching trends Mindful behaviour Collaborative Blended Thinking skills Entrepreneurial Teacher development Publishing Reading and Writing Techno integrating Active Learning and teaching Innovative Inquiry based learning
