Dear Diary,
Came to Valsayn
with a Georgian girl. Miss Santana had some trouble trying to scan a document.
There was no one in the office to assist her that early in the morning. I
thought that I had 2L this morning after eating my pie and after unpacking my
bag, I saw that I had 2M. I was unsure what to do with them regarding less than
half the class submitting their project. I took the next back of Minim and
Quaver note trees for them to do over neatly.
After getting
them into the classroom, I drew up the blank tables on the board, inserted the
headers and told them that we would be filling out the tables together as a
class. This exercise took the entire double period along with the conducting
exercises for Parts A and B. Part C was given for the students to attempt on
their own for homework. They were also asked to research the pitches D, E, F#, G,
and A for the recorder. The same thing was done with 2F in the Home Room after
recess.
I had 1L for the
third and fourth periods. The students were lined up outside in the lobby area
for their photo for their George’s Identification Card. I began the lesson with
eleven students in the class. The others came in and joined the writing. Time
Signatures was taught. I felt bad that I had to give them the notice of a test
tomorrow.
At lunchtime, “Yash”
came and met me in the office and I had him pick a brick between lesson 7 (Bass
Clef) and lesson 12 (Ties and Slurs). He chose a lesson and I got the note and
had him copy it. We had some practice in the red book and then he was off to
class. When he left, I had lunch done and out of the way. It put a heavy weight
that made me so tired after. Didn’t eat anything for the whole day. I went
outside to call back Janine but she didn’t answer the phone.
I returned to my
desk and tried to fill up the timesheet in time for tomorrow’s submission. Miss
Mohammed dashed out and left early. I was alone in the office. Many people came
and went. The maxi drivers were concerned about their salary sheet not being
signed but had to be left over for the night.
Miss Patel was
the Acting Principal for the day and Mrs Sawh was assisting Dr Blandin. There was
a lot of rain that came down all of a sudden. It left soon after. Short wait
afterwards until we finally left the compound. Going over to Isa, he came
running down the steps and told us that he was late to pick up his children.
Had to do a whole week without typing up my journal entries for last week or
doing anything on the computer for that matter.
