Teaching day four

Only one day left to go as being a teacher! :( for this week anyway! I've had a great time (apart from being ill and spending an afternoon asleep in the staffroom!), teaching is fun!! I had to take part of a german lesson the yesterday, cos the teacher doesn't speak any german!! How stupid is that, you can't teach something you don't know!!! It was only a year 7 class so she knew basic stuff but was rubbish at pronunciation and I had to tell her the word for wednesday! Today I had to do a presentation about different regions in France (got to use the interactive whiteboard!!) It was a year 9 class who are usually really noisy and disruptive but they actually sat quietly and were interested in it and could answer all the quiz questions afterwards to prove they actually had been paying attention!! So I was pretty pleased! And I think they will forever remember that you find marmots in the alps after one boy renamed them 'marmite eating marmots'(!?!)
In other news, I now drink coffee!!! I've finally trained myself, not sure if that's a good thing or not but at least I have a way of waking myself up now! (which I've had to do several times this week!)
