The Ministry of Education has introduced a new set of English literature to our students. One of the short stories that need to be taught is "The Fruitcake Special". It is a story about Anna, who is a Chemist, invented a special perfume mixed with a fruitcake. Whenever she wears it, men will get attracted to her although she is a plain looking woman.
As I was eating in an Asajaya cafe, I came across a bakery and I asked myself "Why not buy a birthday cake for my students?" "I want them to know the smell and taste of a cake while learning the fruitcake special story" I said to my friend. He laughed at my idea but he loved the idea because it will make learning fun and lively.
True enough, when I brought and gave the cake to my students, they had big smiles on their faces and throughout the lesson, they paid attention to whatever I was telling them. Hahahaha! there's a magic in the cake huh?p/s: This post is also available at http://whenteacherspeaks.blogspot.com

You're a great teacher with a true passion! :)
So far, I have never had a teacher bring something while trying to teach the students about a subject or topic.
Willie...I wish there are many more teachers like you in Malaysia! Good of you to do something like that to your students. Good job!
Reptoz, your story become realistic. You attracted your student with the cake. Life as teacher can always be interesting with simple touch.
