Getting ready for a break!

My first assignment is due today, but I submitted it last Monday!

Science is causing my mind to hurt.  The lesson plan creation was fun but the justification part takes some of the fun away.  The hardest part is finding information sources to reference rather than simply stating something I already know.

I've also been planning my placements and trying to work out where to undertake the last one in the hope of getting a job at that school.  I'm trying to decide between the school my daughter currently goes to or another Christian school a little further away (in which case we might change our kid's school).

I applied and was accepted into the Teacher Enabling Course (basic math and English as I finished Year 12 more than 10 years ago) so I can plan to do those two units in Trimester 3 next year.  Looking forward to the challenge of four units per Trimester (I'm currently only doing three).

Daughter will finish school next Monday and has seven weeks holidays!  Little Man will have 6 weeks holiday before starting kindy and Daughter's first day of year 1 is my first day of end of Trimester holidays!  Four weeks break with only Littlest Man full time!

It's been a big year for us this year and I'm ready for holidays.  We've been struggling to get up on time and have been getting to school right as the bell rings!

Must go and get another load of washing out on the line to dry in this heat, then get the dishes washed, the house tidied, the bed made, and finally get my assignment finshed!

Ciao for now!
