Half Term!!!

It's here! I have finally completed my first half term in my new school, and what a term it was! The new class are certainly different to any I've experienced, although they are still year 6's and have a few classic year 6 traits! The lessons are different too - I teach English, Maths and IPC (an enquiry-based teaching that incorporates History, Geography etc. into a project answering a question). No PE, no Music, no Art. Specialist teachers cover everything else which means I have a bit more time, but I do miss them sometimes.
   Tomorrow Jo and I are going to watch the Moto GP which is in KL. One of the children in Jo's class has a parent who owns the company that sponsors the GP and they very kindly gave us free tickets! It should be cool, and it's the kind of thing I wouldn't have thought to do otherwise so it's a bit of a bonus and a nice start to the holidays.
   On Tuesday we head to Thailand for a few days of relaxing on a beach, snorkeling and exploring. We have a night in Phuket and two nights on Koh Phi Phi. I can't wait - I got my camera cleaned especially! Hopefully there will be some good pics - I'll put them on my Flickr page if there are.
   I hope everyone is well - not long until your half term too! I'll try not to leave it too long next time.
