So much to do and so little time to do it in! It's my busiest tutoring day today and I've still got a lesson to prepare, plus packing and whatnot for my very brief trip DownSouth tomorrow (leaving at 6.00am ergh!) and my even briefer trip to ForeignClimes. Typical to get an urge to blog now!
I didn't even manage to finish last nights "to do" list so I've got that to do before I start on today's!
Wish me luck on my trip to far away places - though I've heard on the grapevine that the natives are friendly (normally) - (we'll be bearing gifts just in case they need proof of our good intent - what do you reckon would be best. Some nice shiny beads? A tract telling them that Jesus loves them in the native language, some (Green and) Black Gold? - Hmm yes you are right - shiny beads it is!). I don't have a local phrase book so I am hoping that speaking English very loudly and imperiously will suffice! My friend T who is coming with me can only speak very broad Lancashire so I don't think he'll be a lot of use!
Right - off to finish getting dressed and start thinking about another yet original way to teach phonic "sounding out" of CVC words to a child who has poor auditory processing skills!
