Went to bed at 1am. Was tired actually but I was still awake after an hour lying on bed. I have been thinking about my lesson plans. "Integers" is actually a very easy topic with only positive and negative numbers, and their operations. But sometimes it is just so difficult to explain the easiest thing.
I can still explain the addition involving negative numbers with refering to borrow and return money. But how should I explain the subtraction involving negative numbers? Or maybe I should just tell them the way of solving the problems without explain on the reason of why 5-(-2) = 5+2 = 7 ?
Moreover, the students have weaker ability. That is going to be quite hard for them if I failed to let them comprehend the concept. The resposibility... I can start to feel it now...
The more I thought about it, the more sober I became. Finally I decided to get up and start working out my lesson plans.
The one for Friday lesson is done. Another two to go.
A teacher who woke up at 2am+ to do her lesson plan. Is she hardworking or crazy?

jiayou!! hwo about showing them something like numbers on a ruler, that would be easier to picture the solution to 5-(-2) or sth similar? hehe just a suggestion
Yea... Was thinking like that too... But the method stated in the textbook is very much different. So... Have to think over it...
Anyway, thanks~!
