My draft is almost done but it has been hard. The weather is too good to work and this week I'm also dealing with two other projects - one related to assessing aural skills and teaching English to children.
So yesterday I spent most afternoon watching aural exams and filling in forms, in an hour I'll be driving to another school to watch a 4th grade English lesson and then I'll fill in some other forms. Then I'll have to rush back for a class meeting. I feel I am rushing all the time this week and with the hot weather kids are going nuts and driving teachers nuts! Everybody is tired around here and many of us have a lot to do, while others, surprisingly, don't seem to.
Now got some tests to correct and some more to make for next week and yesterday I had to work late at home so I'm quite sleepy and living on coffee.
Even so, I'm ok. I feel that these projects are what really keeps me going because they drag me from the paperwork and school routine.
Now something is annoying me - I can't do much with my 7A class in the next days because tomorrow and Friday are "cultural days" at school and on Tuesday we have the school "walk for health" and then on thursday a test! All those uninteresting activities preventing us from learning English! Unfair.

Same thing here sister!! The end of the school year is driving me nuts (like you say). The principal´s office is demanding a lot of paper work and many more things.
ReplyDeleteSo I am really looking forward to vacation which is in two weeks (we´ll be done with the on line course by then, too). Like you, this is the kind of activities that keeps me going. But I need a break.
I drafted my final project yesterday (I uoloaded it today. I am missing a thing or two in this week´s list of assignments. So let´s keep working.
