Last days

Today is the last day of my Christmas school holidays. It has been a good holiday really, lots of time spent with family and friends.

We have achieved quite a lot around the house and garden as well which pleases me. Maybe I will get out in the garden and do a bit more on the rock retaining wall today too.

I have been planning some of the lessons for this year's Yr 8 students in my head as well - until I meet the students and know what they are interested in I won't lock anything in place.

I am a little apprehensive as I always am at the start to the year. I know that once I get into the swing of things it will be OK.

Getting started

Why would an ordinary everyday type of person want to publish on a blog site?

Do I think I have wonderful wise things to say that people would want to read?

Perhaps not, but I wanted an interesting way for my students to communicate with me, and I wanted to encourage them to write more.

Will it work?

We will have to wait and see.
