However, today's schedule has already changed...
iLeader teaching Madge's class; not like for like for but certainly no downgrade. She's a very smooth operator. I picked up Rino & her chair for a dance; she's shy but loved being at the front, and entertained all the children. Phone call about paint (can I decide by phone/photo or go back to the shop sometime 'together' - like when, exactly?!) & thought I sorted Boss wrt Drive & new email account.
A mum playing piano in Legs11's room was lovely, then a play outside in the heat. Slow pace about lunch today, with everyone feeling drowsy - me included!
Playing outside in this heat has a serious overheating risk. Very uncomfortable & lots of sticky icky fingers! One lad as toban (monitor) today deliberately sticking fingers in food while serving the class at lunch & doing his best to be a Smart Alec. Allowed to be the punk as he's the biggest lad in the class, and easier to let him do what he wants and maintain the rest; he attracts my attention on purpose or not I'm not sure, but I certainly find his 'can't touch me' smirk annoying.
Jim time failed - Wallace video got chewed
Swiftly into Mr Wolf outside & impromptu janken race around a clock.
Idea = team counts the clock numbers as teams race around it,
rock/scissors/paper when meeting.
problem with this should be obvious - counting beyond ten, as well as half the participants having to count backwards. And everyone has to count with the numbers upside down to them - I don't think I have seen a board game or teacher resource yet with the numbers facing 'out'. Have you?
Memo to self = check the tech will work
2nd memo to self = have a viable plan B to hand
Melting after that, tidying up & trying to rescue my precious video tape.
At the end of the day, iLeader talking about a broken nendo board & value of friends' things. Nicely done group telling off, with their participation & agreement. Strong collective feeling of chagrin, losing the teacher's high regard and a group failure. no one in particular told off.
