6:12 pm on the 3rd of October, 2006The frist two classes on a Monday are good fun at the moment. A second year then a first year. Both nice keen classes. Some woodwork done in the first period then some metalwork in the second. 3rd period was metal work with 3rd years, simply marking out shape of a blade for a fish slice. I had a hard time getting their attention, the room is part of an openplan workshop (crazy idea) and the class in other half were fairly noisy so there were lots of distractions for this easily distracted class. Got there in the end though.
Next up I took the chance of a 4th year class to test run my crit lesson. It didn’t go very well but it wasn’t a disaster. If it had been the crit I think I would have been graded as competant, it may possibly have got a B. IT is hard to tell of course. It certainly wasn’t an A, I am really struggling to find a way to make this an excellent lesson. To find a way to make this lesson stand out above the rest.
I had some other classes that day but they weren’t worth writing home about - 3rd year graphics continuing with sections and 5th PCS.
