distraction - diversion - confession


DISTRACTION :

I haven't blogged for ages.  I haven't sewn for ages.  I haven't done anything but work or be sick for what seems like ages.  iGCSE mocks start in a couple of weeks so it's just full on.


I had my teaching observation today -  if you're a teacher, or just a human being,  you'll understand how very stupidly inept and nervous observations make you feel, even when you know you are a good teacher from the results and connection you have with your students!  It went really well.  My head of department rocks ... her feedback was fantastic.  A bit of reflection almost makes the horrendous marking load worth it.

(this term I've been getting up at 5.30am to get it done and frankly I'm pooped.)


DIVERSION:

Anyway, while I'm on the endorphin rush of getting that ick out of the way for another year, I thought I'd pop in and show you these amazing test card images I found while planning this "Normal service will be resumed ..." post

 … Excuse me ...  How quilty are these ????

All from a wonderfully nerdy test card website.  Go feast your eyes and I'll be back before you know it …

CONFESSION:

When I was little I always assumed it was somehow a picture of me, which led me to believe for years ... and I mean most of my life ... that each family had their own test card!
