I thought I’d torture myself by having a peek at just how many things I need to mark before 9am (you know, to prepare myself).... SLT have been on and marked/approved the lot 😭🌟🙏🏼💖🧑🏻🏫🙌🏼 nearly cried
How amazing would it be if you could job swap with a secondary teacher (or vice versa) for a month! Would be so good to see that next step (or step before) - could really open our eyes to so many different teaching strategies! 🤩
Did I turn up at the wrong school for a course? Yes
Did I then make it to the correct place? Nope, who knew there’s two sport building things in Grangemouth.
Did I then make it to the right place? Yes.
Could it get any worse? Course rescheduled 🫨🫨🫨
“Schools can’t close because then parents can’t go to work” .... I totally understand some parents in the emergency services etc need to go to work BUT most have been encouraged to work from home and more importantly SCHOOL IS NOT A BABYSITTING SERVICE.
Told the kids the government wanted us to become ambidextrous and we had to practise at once... slowly got them to copy a sentence off the bored with the wrong hand..... I got them good 🤣

Has anyone had any success with couch to 5k? I REALLY need to get my bahookie in gear sooner rather than later for my wedding but in all my previous attempts to run I’ve given up - definitely more due to mindset than physical ability (but that deffo comes into it 🤣)
I’m honestly really angry (and utterly baffled) that as teachers we are in contact with 33ish families (and whoever they are in contact with) yet can’t visit our parents 🤦🏻♀️
Yesterday was a dream from start to finish ✨ I just wish it never had to end!! So insanely proud to have graduated from Dundee with a First Class Honours Degree in Education. ❤️ 🎓

For anyone upset they “didn’t get their first choice council”……. I got my fourth choice when I did my probation year and it was the best thing to ever happen to me 🫶🏼
Done a couple of wee recordings for some of my lessons on Monday and Tuesday and ASDFGJFKSLFNEKFBEK 🤣🤮🤣🤮🤣🤮🤮🤣🤮🤣🤣 I can’t DEAL with my voice 🙈 cringing so bad
Twitter friends! I’m looking to grow my network 🥰🥰 work love recommendations of teachers of ASN/SEN and/or early level to follow ✨🌟✨ I follow back!!!!!! (+ if I don’t, give me a budge because it is absolutely not intended!)
I have a class of primary 4s who are v unimpressed at
@BBCNewsround
for the huge ENGLAND ENGLAND ENGLAND focus.... I always thought it was for the whole of the UK 🤔
I don't know if this is the wine or just a really good observation but from watching these recordings I’ve made for online learning over and over I've decided my tongue doesn't fit in my mouth 😂
I am SO immensely proud of this wee team today. We had a lovely walk to the venue, lots of super waiting, we tried some new activities + enjoyed cheering on all of our friends. A really great day ⭐️ 🏃🏻♀️ 🥎 🥇
I’ve made it to the gym every day before work this week + started drinking the recommended amount of water for the first time in my adult life AND I FEEL LIKE A NEW HUMAN 😁 happy long weekend 🎉
I just won a Facebook competition to have an original tune composed and recorded on the bagpipes for our wedding day 🥺😍 just the pick me up we both needed ✨
What a year, what a week, what a day! I’ve learned so much & am so grateful to have been a part of my classes’ school journey. However, I am even MORE excited to start my new post in August as an S1 ASN core teacher 🌸🤩 Now…. Prosecco and sleep! Oh… and a wedding 🤣👰🏻♀️🥂
We may have scrimped on the recipe but it did equate to lots of fun! Most favoured topping of pancake day…… jam! Lots of fabulous care taken around the hot plate with an extra dose of patience waiting to flip their pancakes. 👏🏼 ⭐️ 🥞
Yesterday we ventured out to the charity shops to stock up on jigsaws. We found a fair few! C did a fabulous job wheeling herself most of the way. 😊 🌟 💰 🌳 👩🏼🦽🚶🏼♂️🚶🏽♂️🛍️
After a horrendous start to the year it’s so refreshing to have things to look forward to. Today I met mum in Edin to make our very own Harris Tweed Bags 🧡🤎🩷💚
Thank you
@MissAber_
for the amazing idea! P4 are so excited to start earning and buying responsibilities (& rewards) using our new classroom economy! Lots of sad faces when discussing how much it will cost them to do some things.....
Me and this yellow backing paper have been arch enemies since the day I took over my class. You can’t see my smile, but this was a very momentous moment… 🥳 kids have been SO settled since & are concentrating much better already, even with us coming to the end of term 🥳🥳
Welcome to the family, Comet ☄️
We rescued Comet from a farm where he was no longer welcome because he refused to work (too much of a big softie!!!) ..........He just wanted to make pals with all the sheep 🐑🤣
Coronavirus has brought far too many negatives into our lives ...... so we decided to turn them on their head! Working from home = able to train a pupper! Meet Luna 🥰🥰🥰
I insist we don’t go back to work until we get a week of sunshine. I feel cheated out of the holidays 🤣😂 it has flown in but dragged - and I still need more!!
📸School photo day 📸
In prep we set up our own classroom studio and showed off our best smiles! It worked a treat as only some of us managed a photo with the real photographer. What a great afternoon looking through all of our fabulous portraits together ⭐️

I moved schools halfway through my primary school years. I remember one of my biggest fears was the possibility of not making any friends. Today, as I start in a new school as a teacher, I feel the very same. 🤣
I’m now a complete
