Meg went to sleep at 9.45pm. The other two were only 20 minutes before that. Dom is at ice hockey. The house is a bit of a mess. I could not care less. (LIES! I care! I care! but I am not going to do anything about it tonight)
My Yr10 students were hellish as usual but we made it thru the hour without any of them climbing out the window or me trying to put a hex on them.
My observation didn't happen. The Principal had to go to a meeting of some sort. No problemo. Anytime is fine with me.... I should have been devestated because I had put in all kinds of time and effort for a whiz-bang lesson but you know what, I do that every period so she really can come to any lesson! The class she would have watched was also yanking my chain. The boys *insisted* on pronouncing everything as Kiwi as possible. Grrrrrrr.
My Yr 8 class was awesome however. Dom wrote me a fancy computer programme so my students can practice French on the school computers (that are not connected to the internet because it is against their religion). I took my Yr 8 students to use it for the first time and you could just lights going on all over the place. They totally connected with it, loved the fact they were on computers and the speed you can do stuff on a computer is at least 3 times the speed of writing so they got thru so many examples that they really could see the patterns. Yahoo! Merci Dominic :)
However, today was so long and so busy that I came home and then had to do all kinds of errands and jobs and then i passed out. Literally. Luckily Dom was there to look after me. The kids didn't like it one bit.
Tomorrow should be much more relaxing. Yoga at 9.30am and then a nap, then I head out to school for a staff meeting (yes, they always schedule them on days that I am not working, sigh) with all the langauge teachers around NZ that work for our school (we have 14 satellite schools). And no, before you ask, I can't call in sick because I am doing some training at the meeting. After school Meg has ballet, Sebastien has cricket and then at 7pm we have the Festival Choir at the Town Hall (Meg is in it). I think we will be having Subway for dinner!
