After spending a good amount of time this morning finding any excuse possible to procrastinate writing reports, I finally got down to it.
Seeing that I’ve spent the last 8 hours writing, I’ll make this post as language light as possible.
Where to begin? Intimidating, no?
And that’s only the half of it.
‘Good Morning’ tea and pancake plans.
A scoop of protein powder in the batter made for ultra fluffy pancakes. Topped with pecans, coconut butter and maple syrup, yummy.
After breakfast, I was ready to go.
First up, art.
Pre and post our lesson on facial proportions in portraiture.
The best part of being a teacher is witnessing children learn and expand their understanding right in front of you. It’s so cool to be a part of this learning. This simple art lesson took place in 40 minutes. The little artist was so proud of her much more realistic second drawing. We’re now doing one facial bit at a time. We’ve done eyes and noses. Next up, ears, mouths and hair.
Social studies followed a short re-hydration break.
Will break for breaded and baked eggplant.
After finishing social studies, I started on science then decided to swap over to math instead.
Snack break!
After that, the photos stopped but the work didn’t.
Luckily I had a cheerful pot of roses beside me all day. Every time I glanced next to my computer screen, I couldn’t help but smile.
Just so perdy.(Pretty spoken like my grandpa.)
Tomorrow I plan to finish science, literacy, ICT and the general teacher comments.
I’m saving PE and Design and Technology for the work week.
Wish me luck, peace, insight and honesty.
Night all!
Eating Abroad
I truly believe that teaching has its advantages – watching students learn is definitely the most important of them.
Those flowers by your side sure helped!
Who gave you those? Or you bought them yourself?
You’re right. Teaching is the best profession. The flowers were a gift from me to me. They make me wish I had flowers around all the time.
Wow what a difference the before and after drawings prove. Missed Skyping with you this weekend. Has been busy running back and forth to the hospital for Grandpa K. Will fill you in later. He is amazing though. God is good. Keep up the good work. I’m so proud of you. Your students are so fortunate to have you as their teacher (of course I’m not biased in ANY way!) Love ya! Mom
I always admire your photos – always great!! Hey, what protein powder do you use ?? It’s so great – I can actually ask you what you buy and I might be able to purchase your answer
Thanks for the kind words. I’ve recently started using the Soja Shake soy protein powder from DM. Both the vanilla and chocolate taste good and are 100% from plants. They are lactose, cholesterol and gluten free. Let me know what you think if you give them a try.
Oh procrastinate is my second name
Yummy pancakes I wish I could have those for breakfast here. Have a nice day!
