You have to love the Spanish English translations some days. Today the Menu proudly proclaimed the accompaniment to the meal was Screws in the Mediteranian which turned out to be the whirly type pasta in a mediteranian sauce. I have to admit I still felt slightly cheated even though it was rather tasty.
I worked with 2 grade 6 classes today under a very controlled system of teaching where they did exactly as I told them preparing the photo frame. It isn't as free and creative but it does mean I know everyone is at the exact same stage.
Tomorrow I have a free first period then I am off for the rest of the day to the main exhibition centre where there is a "book" fair. I have no idea what to expect but it seems it will be a fair (no pun intended) size since we are going to be there all day.
I will need to make sure the Ipod is charged up I can use the day listenign to my Spanish podcasts. I wish I had found these before I came out as they are really superb and I have learned more from them than anythign else, the fact they are produced once a week in Glasgow and I have 52 weeks worth is a huge help even though I am only up to lesson 25 !! Each episode from Mark and Cara at Coffee Break Spanish is approx 20 mins and covers the sort of things you need to know not what other programs want you to know.
And on that spanish note.. its good night till tomorrow. (Which is actually now as its just gone midnight here.)
