Lest we forget

Earthquake practice at 9:50 very well done on the sly. Taken very seriously as teachers also caught on the hop. My only contribution = have all the class registrations done on iPads and upload over wifi instantly. Even if wifi down, all data on any of all devices handy. Teachers do not have to grab folders; anyone with a connected device has the data. They should also have Line &/or Messenger groups for emergencies like this (not a phone pyramid as that will crash/be disabled). Children suitably obedient and attentive.

In with Allan today, who has no clue what to do with me. Nothing new there; she's only had a year to come up with a strategy. Her kind of class is where the poor behaviour comes from; various ill-disciplined boys, grabby/shouty/pokey/gobby not managed/noticed/re-tuned.

Very unusually, Chi at the front of assembly (and bless, looked nervous), after flute-playing Izumi introduced - gasps of surprise all round!

Minnie already has plan for tomorrow - Kuri/Kura J/E versions found; good on her. Found 10 minutes to practice reading it so I can follow her lead and hopefully stress the same bits as her. She's always ahead of the game, and takes her responsibility heavily.

Have managed to get a Brazilian guy to come to town to present, and as an extension hoping he'll pay a visit here.

Guilt trip this morning as my son's Christmas party on an exam day - like I can't not go to Nagoya?
