End of Term 1 Reflection and Planning

Well, term 1 is already done.  It seems very quick, and both my husband and I are feeling great about school.  My 0.4 load has given me the mental space to feel actually human, so this is what I managed to get out of this term.

What I'm Happy About

• the progress of my classes
• the progress of the Realm of Learning
• the plans for the yearbook thus far
• the amount of planning I've been able to put into my lessons
• the very (comparatively) small amount of days I've taken off this term
• having time to work with a personal trainer
• actually having lost a little bit of weight
• sticking with my kj counter for about 2 weeks
• reactions to my crochet
• my husband's excellent rep with students and other teachers

What I'd Like To Work On

• more group work in my classes
• classroom management with my younger class
• dialling down my sarcasm a bit more
• no more crocheting in class (oops)
• gifting my colleagues more with my new crochet skills (so far, I haven't given anyone anything)
• organise 3 or 4 'Watch Others Work' sessions for next term
• collecting the evidence for my full teacher registration (ugh)
• continuing to make this blog constructive and consistently posting

if there's anyone out there...any suggestions?
