I have returned!
much has happened since last posting.. it has certainly been a year full of learning curves!
2011 is a year where I get to focus on my teaching practice alone.. and I'm loving it! What have I been doing before now you might ask- well, treading water really- For two years I was a year level coordinator- boy does that suck the life out of you. To do it properly I focussed all my energies on that job and less on pedagogy really.. Perhaps because I am still only a new teacher (three years in July). I guess I was able to pull YLC off because Of my age and experience as a mother of four children.
Mostly I liked doing the job, but it made me realize that I want to stay at the coal face and teach the students.. always striving to find a better way to help them learn- that is my passion. Admin positions don't really appeal to me at this stage- although if you ask me in ten years time that might have changed! I do doubt it though.
Well, that's about it for this post.
