Thursdays

Its Thursday and another week is almost over. Today should have been a good day but due to an error by one staff member (Putting the wrong time on an email) and an unexpected project by another I lost 2 classes for their period today, so instead of teaching 4 periods I only taught 2.. this might be looked on by some as a bonus, but when I am trying to complete 2 projects in a short period of time its a big frustration. This is one of the problems with MYP there are so many "grade level" events run by other subject areas, which is fine in itself if its timetabled in and on the calendar. But that doesn't happen and the first you know about it is the notice board in the staffroom on the day it is happening. It didn't help today when one teacher who wanted the pupils at 9.30 wrote 9.00 instead... About the only way to be sure is to not take people at their word and double check everything personally!

I have finally heard that the inventory in Jordan will be done during the first 2 weeks of May which is a definite step forward might actually mean I can do some planning soon for what is needed.

I am looking forward to the weekend I have been so busy the last 2 weekends that I really feel I need a good walk a Roast Beef Bocadillo and a Cafe con Latte...role on saturday.
