Tales from the classroom: teacher appreciation week
Recently, it was Teacher Appreciation Week (I know I'm late... but y'know what? whatever, ha) and my kids wanted to show their appreciation to all of the staff in school in some way. At the minute, we can't cross bubbles and we're still being quite strict on our COVID rules in school, so we had … Continue reading Tales from the classroom: teacher appreciation week
Happy things…
Making positive phone calls home. Watching videos of cute cats. Emails from parents saying I'm doing a good job. Hilarious videos from friends. Watching videos of cute ducks. Listening to Trixie Mattel over and over again. Setting up my bullet journal. The Circle. Watching football on a Sunday while I do some blogging. Group chats … Continue reading Happy things…
Half term joys
I love my job, but my god do I appreciate a holiday. Seeing friends for the first time in months. Seeing family for the first time in months. Getting hugs for the first time in months. Reading. Running. Viperthon. The sunshine coming out. Longer days. Lighter nights. Sleeping pretty well. Releases of some brilliant books. … Continue reading Half term joys
Happy times!
Reading a whole book in 2 sittings when you've been unable to concentrate on a book in ages. Christmas presents in the post. Wrapping (despite the fact I hate it) well co-ordinated presents. Watching Drag Race and cutting out. Voices of Fire. Being able to use something time and time again because it works. Watching … Continue reading Happy times!
Happy things…
I used to regularly do happy things posts, but 2020 happened and I stopped reflecting on the things that make me smile and keep me going. (I've just looked and the last time I did one of these posts was in May... so yeah, a WHILE!) Today then, I am bringing back the happy post! … Continue reading Happy things…

It's something I miss about not being able to go round to different schools. I thought I'd share with you some of the spaces in my classroom - … Continue reading A peek into my classroom…

Morning everyone, By the time you read this, I'll be in school. There's no children today (they're back tomorrow) because we're having an INSET day. I thought I'd put together my thoughts to just share with everyone. If you're interested in my musings, please keep reading. If you're not, that's cool. I appreciate that there … Continue reading Back to school – the musings of a teacher…
A month in the life of me… June edition
June was a month of mixed emotions... I went back to work at the start of June and that's been a whole load of getting used to. New routines. New roles. A new way of working. A new way of thinking. A whole load of newness wrapped in the delight of being back at work. … Continue reading A month in the life of me… June edition
A month in the life of me… May edition!
May was another bizarre-o month. It was being a teacher from afar. Replying to emails from children. Smiling at their lovely comments. Setting pieces of work remotely. Watching TTR tournaments. Beaming at some of the scores. Commenting on homework. Working through reports. Going into school for a meeting. Seeing my classroom all set up for … Continue reading A month in the life of me… May edition!
