¡¡¡Fun Fun Fun !!!
!!!nuF nuF nuF ¡¡¡
(although remind me never to think of a good idea like that again) For 6th and 7th grade I arranged for today to be 'backwards day' where as much as possible in the classroom was backwards. We wore our uniforms and shoes backwards, we spoke backwards, we played backward games, we wrote creative stories about role reversals, we studied polygon reflections and translations (backwards stuff), we worked on the floor instead of the chairs - apart from when we sat on
them backwards, and we wrote everything backwards, upside down, back-to-front etc. etc.
It was the most fun, confusing and stressful day I have had this year. The kids liked it though.
The other teachers, however, said they thought I had gone mad. Perhaps I have..

I was just writing this weeks spelling words on the board.. the room was hot and sticky.. the chalk was snowing down around my fingers.. the kids were quiet (!).. and I was just thinking 'I need a pee, I wonder if I can leave them for a second...' and an all-consuming, overwhelming urge took over me! I was blown away by the sensation! I could hardly contain myself. No, it wasn't for whatever you are thinking, it was an urge for a basket of scampi and a pint of lager top in a pub garden in Carmarthen. How bizarre.
I could just see the wonky wooden tables, I could just smell the greasy french fries, I could just hear the jukebox filtering through from inside, I could just taste the tartare sauce. Oh! the ketchup! I wonder if you can buy tartare sauce out here, the ketchup's really naff. Nice mayonnaise though.
Enough.
