SMK MOHD KHALID...overcomes mental block...

JOHOR BAHRU: It was a “mental block” start but that did not hold the SMK Mohd Khalid team back from winning the upper secondary category of the RHB-The Star Mighty Minds Challenge here yesterday.
The team – comprising M. Sooriya Kumar, C. Sathesh and Izzuddin Ismail – made the cut to represent Johor at the national-level contest in Kuala Lumpur next month.
Sooriya said the team only got its act together in the last 10 minutes of the second stage and managed to construct the required sliding projector.
“We remembered what our Physics teacher taught us and used our imagination to build it. We recovered from our earlier setback and did our best,” he said, describing the win as a “miracle”.
He said the win had given the team the courage to go to Kuala Lumpur and win at the national level.

5 Tips Building Your Child Self-Esteem

1. BE GENEROUS WITH PRAISE - Parents must develop the habit of looking for situations in which children are doing good jobs, displaying talents, or demonstrating positive character traits. Remember to praise children for jobs well done and for effort.

2. TEACH POSITIVE SELF-STATEMENTS- It is important for parents to redirect children's inaccurate or negative beliefs about themselves and to teach them how to think in positive ways.

3. AVOID CRITICISM that takes the form of ridicule or shame. Blame and negative judgements are at the core of poor self-esteem and can lead to emotional disorders.

4. TEACH CHILDREN ABOUT DECISION MAKING and to recognize when they have made good decisions. Let them 'own' their problems. if they solve them, they gain confidence in themselves. if you solve them, they'll remain dependent on you. take the time to answer questions.Help children think of alternative options.

5. SHOW CHILDREN THAT YOU CAN LAUGH AT YOURSELF. Show them that life doesn't need to be serious all the time and that some teasing is all in fun. your sense of humor is important for their well-being.
