Dear
Diary,
I
came to the campus early. I did not play the national anthem but I was still
there. Miss Roberts met me at my desk to collect some of her assignments that
were submitted there yesterday. A lot of them were incomplete. I had been to
the class a bit late because their homeroom time usually goes late into the
first period.
I
did not have it in mind to do the exam today but because the students were
asking about it and there were enough to do it, I continued. I decided to sit
in the back of the class for this exam to look at the students that liked to
talk during the exam like last Friday. This one was smoother than the English
exam and did not take much time for the students to complete.
A
nice tactic I tried was to ask the students to check over five times and to
“draw me something nice” in the empty parts of the exam paper. This helped the
students in waiting for fewer students to complete the exam. We only had two
minutes before the end of the second period and I took up the papers first. I
then took up their Grade 1 booklets.
I
took the full hour and ten minutes of periods three and four to correct all the
exam sheets and insert the total points into my ‘temporary mark sheet’. Only at
lunchtime, I corrected the students’ Grade 1 books. Many of them did not do
their homework and I had a lot of writing to do on square sheets of paper. Some
time into the seventh period, I returned the books to their class.
Miss
Roberts had called me and asked to supervise seven students doing an exam they
missed. We started late into the seventh period. I waited until the 2:30 bell
for school to dismiss. It was only after school I correct the seven exam papers
while waiting for the bus shuttle to come. There was enough time to do them and
I left them back at school.
Today the timesheet was due. I had handed it in somewhere after recess to Isekel. I just hope that they make copies of them. We still had the staff meeting at periods four and five that went twenty minutes into lunchtime. I had my small copybook taking notes from the safety officer and his notes about the safety drill that should be coming any time before school closes.
