At the end of the term the common test was sent to schools to be administers by the

common test. Instead of administering the common test, she developed her own test
for her learners.
Scenario 2

distractions in her classroom. Mr Tiba was giving the class instructions for writing an
assignment that was to be handed over the following day. As usual Energy was not
paying attention and thus missed the instructions. She was busy humming and
tapping her pen on the desk. She requested for the instructions to be repeated. The
other learners in the class made fun of Energy and ridiculed her for not paying
attention once again. Mr Tiba, feeling frustrated because he was asked to repeat the
instructions once again, continued passing the materials and instructed Energy to
get out of his classroom.
Scenario 3
