Can't believe it's nearly over!
Last day of my placement at Madras tomorrow, I don't want to leave! It's been exhausting but fun and the kids have been great. Said goodbye to one of my S3 classes today and on their way out every one of them thanked me for teaching them! So sweet!
Pleased with how it went I think, have a file brimming with lesson plans and resources that will be useful for a long time and lots of links now to various good resource sites. And, I got a merit in both my tutur and my school report, so feeling very pleased with myself! On that note, I' going to finish planning what will be my last two lessons for a while and then cook a nice dinner and have a bottle of wine to celebrate! may go to rocksoc but don't fancy teaching on a rock hangover.....
Worksheets and ideas for various levels (I've used 'primary' resources up to S4
