Barbaric Musings: Wild Warhol
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2010/07/wild-warhol.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Wednesday, July 14. Had such fun with our Y1/2 class today. First, let me remind you that that isn't my normal class. It's that time of year when we do class swaps and, as I'm leaving, I got to fill-in for one of the new teachers who couldn't make it in. So, my basic premise for the day was "Going Wild". First, we watched an animated version of Maurice Sendak's "Where the Wild Things are" from YouTube. Know a Noah, George?

Barbaric Musings: All Change
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2010/07/all-change.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Tuesday, July 13. So I just looked back over my last blog post. How things change. Through a combination of factors, some personal some professional, I've just never "clicked" at this school - so by mutual agreement I'm moving on. I'm now looking forward to a new challenge - moving up to KS3 to teach ICT. Just a slight change from Y3/4 where I've been this year! There was an error in this gadget. Know a Noah, George?

Barbaric Musings: Result!
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2008/03/result.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Saturday, March 1. Bit of a result, at least - I've been offered another year's contract at my school. But yes, I am gainfully employed next year again - still in Y4 (so with this year's Y3) with the same TA (because we're apparently making a great team). Yee-flippin'-ha! They said thank you!

Barbaric Musings: August 2007
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Thursday, August 9. Summer holiday, you say? So here I am in the middle of the much-touted six week school holidays. And I'm back at the old company for the middle four weeks, to top up the old coffers (and hopefully finally afford that Nintendo Wii. That I've had my eye on) and have some good old programming fun. But by criminy I'm so looking forward to September by comparison! At my new school. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Barbaric Musings: Pastures New
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2009/09/pastures-new.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Friday, September 18. So it's been a long while since I posted anything. Just, then, briefly to think about where I've been. To sum up what I've found out. I've still got a long way to go. But we're going to have fun getting there :). There was an error in this gadget. Know a Noah, George? The Voyages of Ellida of Laira. A Series of Fortunate Events. Apparently 'My Space' isn't distinct enough for some.

Barbaric Musings: Advice and stage fright
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2008/02/advice-and-stage-fright.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Friday, February 8. Advice and stage fright. Been more than a little busy recently, but have to share a couple of incidents. Firstly, I was stopped the other afternoon by one of the mums. "Excuse me, " she said, "but do you have a minute? Naturally, I did. "My daughter tells me that you've completed Zelda on the DS? Think I may have made a friend, there. Then, today, in our dress rehearsal I not only came in too soon (whic...

Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Thursday, January 8. And the wisdom to hide the bodies. Had a situation today where, looking at decimals, I asked the class to stand up if the answer was greater than a number and sit down if it was less. And the wisdom to hide the bodies.

Barbaric Musings: December 2006
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Thursday, December 21. 1 down 2 to go. So here it is, "Merry Christmas". and that's one term down and two to go. I'm shattered, but in a good way trust me. It's so hard to know what to say, here. The situation has changed so much since I started, that I'm not totally sure which way is up any more. I'm petrified at the thought of qualifying, yet desperately concerned that I'll never. Wish me luck. eep. Thursday, December 7.

Barbaric Musings: March 2007
http://barbaricmusings.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Being various random thoughts from one often rejoicing in the pseudonym of Fafhrd. Thursday, March 8. And I thought I was busy before? I feel confident in saying that even tho' it is only Thursday. Which, of course, left me high and dry! Thankfully, cover was found for the morning as we had an off-site activity (planting at a local park with the "Streetwise" council group), but it meant I had to lead the afternoon again (thankfully ICT and a story time) on my tod. Ah well - all good experience. After fee...
