Paperwork!!!

Well, thankfully my mentor approved happily of my literacy medium term plans. Hurrah. She says that, all going well, she'll keep them to teach from next year, which is a weird feeling!
I've been playing around with them for ages, but I reckon in the future I won't get much chance to just happily mess around with plans, because I'll be too busy!
I'm also spending loads of time finding resources for children's self assessment (traffic light fans etc) and I'm finding exciting words to go around my 'Poet-Tree' display, to inspire my budding poets.
Monday is Inset day and I'll be setting up for tuesday (lots of photocopying, putting up display etc) and I have to take my folders in for my mentor to look at and sign off...I left my paperwork for the last couple of weeks while I was in school more. What a mistake! I keep thinking I've got it all filed when I find another piece, or something else that I need to do!
Lesson learnt: file paperwork at LEAST once a week, if not every night!!
Next week I'm teaching 2 literacy lessons, the week after, three literacy and three or four numeracy, week after - about the same and also double science (and possibly covering for my teacher when she's on a course), and the week after that - same as above and a foundation subject. It's all getting serious now!

Hi again Suzy,

I just wondered if you could blog your evidence for the GTP or does it have to be hard copy? Any reason why it couldn't be all in the cloud as it were and then printed off as required.

Thanks

Lisa
