SJKC Malayan

Michelle Seher, working in Ayer Hitam, Batu Pahat, Johor has introduced the PAL Programme to SJKC Malayan. 
                      
                                                                                          

    PAL has become an integral part of the reading lessons at SJKC Malayan.
Pairing up between higher and lower level reading pupils in this Yr 3 class has proven to be a very successful match. The teacher is quite happy with the improvements already seen from using this technique and plans to continue with PAL to improve reading fluency among her pupils.

PAL Reading Funfair @ SK Jengka Batu 13, Chenor, Maran, Pahang

Tom James introduced the PAL Programme at SK Jengka Batu 13, Chenor, Pahang by hosting  "PAL Reading Day" today, 14th November 2014.  The event was coordinated by myself, TOM JAMES, Chenor Mentor, SARAH HIGGS, Jempol Mentor, and UMI ZURIATI BINTI AB RAHMAN.

In this event, pupils were paired Level 1 with Level 2 and then practiced PAL reading.  Next, they divided into groups and attended sessions with PAL reading and fun expansion activities.  Each pair was issued a "passport" in which they collected stamps for each activity they completed.  Upon completion of their passport, they could redeem it for a delicious snack from me.  The event was a great success, and I hope to see PAL continue at SK Jengka Batu 13 next year.
