Sep 20th

So, it's 5.30 in the morning and I'm out in the sunrise hanging the laundry...who would have ever thought I'd be up at this hour! When that happens it usually means that I haven't made it to bed yet. By 7 o'clock I've gone for a jog, showered, had breakfast and cleaned up my room. I'm on a whole new schedule in life, but it feels good.
Today was my first day teaching and I was a bit nervous about it, but it went ok. I've taken on grade 7 and 8,9,10, then I help the other girls with the smaller ones. I love my grade sevens! They are so happy to be there and so keen to learn. The other ones are more of a struggle, but I think with my stubborn mind we'll find a way to have some fun lessons together and to get them involved. I just need to be a bit more creative. Suggestions are welcomed teacher friends!

If you need any docs, I can get them for you? Do you have a printer that you can use? I have some books you may be able to print.
Didnt sleep eh? Mind wandering?

Thanks, we do have a printer, but a whole book would be a lot to print. Just looking for some ideas and notes more...some fun learning games etc...
