I'm officially the worst session planner ever!
Finally, the moment I've been waiting for since the beginning of the course has arrived. I finally get to teach my own class. I have everything planned. My session plan, the resources, and even a nice warmer to break the ice. I'm not sure how many students I'll have though, but I've planned for at least six. Time to print my resources and session plan. Oh great! Printer not working! After fiddling with it for about two hours with no success, I remember that I'm a teacher, not an engineer. I give up and make a note to attach my resources to my e-mail.I'm sure I can print them out at my placement.
It's Tuesday morning and my class is at 10a.m. I get my daughter ready for school and I try the nanny's number to let her know I'm on my way. She doesn't answer. I keep trying for about thirty minutes, still no answer. Okay, I'll just head to her house and hope she's there. I get to the nanny's house and she's not there. It's already quarter to nine so I resolve to take my daughter to school myself, meaning that I won't leave Cardiff until after nine o clock. I arrive at the community centre at exactly quarter to ten and I realise that I haven't attached my materials to my e-mail as I planned. Only a miracle can save me now!
I log on to the computer and somehow, I manage to create another lesson plan in ten minutes, no warmer/ice-breaker though. I show the lesson plan to my mentor and she approves it. I can now breathe!
