So my students seem to think that they need to instruct me on certain things. Several boys say for homework I need to play a round of Fortnite?! and I will be enlightened. Then, in English this morning we were covering gender and I wanted the female of bachelor - I was told bachelorette - noooo! When they finally got spinster I was honoured with sentences saying Miss Lannas is a spinster (gee thanks!) My one boy then pipes up, "Miss Lannas have you tried Tinder?" I had a good chuckle, but goodness, he's only 12!
Unfortunately by the end of the morning my voice had decided to start going AWOL - not fun when you are trying to hold a P.E. lesson on the tennis court. I did make my students do planks for 30 seconds - they went very quiet after that, well for a short bit. I really could have done with a whistle.
Was supposed to have done personal training but I did forewarn my trainer that I am getting sick. She listened to my croaky voice and decided we would have cups of lemon and honey tea and a catch up instead - I had been craving honey and lemon all morning. On my way home I stopped by the Dandaro Pharmacy as I get me meds there and they know me and they suggested Benylin. Really hope I can hit this on the head and be better by Friday. The students who have been off sick for a day have come back better, so here's hoping. My headmistress suggested I should use hand sanitiser to ward off germs. I am not really a fan of hand sanitiser but am very aware of all the things I am holding everyday especially with students who are sick.
In the board meeting last night the issue of the current reform in data protection came up. It's not a big thing here in Zimbabwe but for people in the UK, you have until Friday to address it. I guess I need to think about it when I send out my group emails (not that I do that much now). Is quite a thing if you have had people do surveys or fill out forms for you.
