In a wink of an eye, it's already Thursday! :(

I dread the thought of Monday again....

Thinking about the 1001 things waiting to be done while home is just where I wanna be, makes me juz so sianz of work..

Looking at the piles of English workbooks on my desk at home right now makes me feel worse.. I lugged them home yesterday after dance practice.. I just couldn't continue marking in school as the amount of crap that I have to remark makes me very grouchy and irritated.. plus the heat in my classroom certainly doesn't makes things easier..

But I knew I had to look through the books else when school reopens, there's definitely not going to be time for that..

ARGH!

Reflections and ramblings!

I did monitor her teaching and did advise her many times to do the work with the class, check their work and mark them. but apparently, she still left things up to the last minute and in the end, she didn't have time to finish marking them.. let alone go through corrections with the class... or perhaps, she is too trusting.. trust that the kids will always hand in work to her on time and trust that they will do corrections...

or should I say she's irresponsible? never check that the kids actually did their work? never check who handed in and who didn't? never bother to mark accurately?

I merely glanced through the kids' books and noticed so many mistakes in her marking! Told her about it.. told her to look into it and re-mark.. but did she? NO!! She spent the last period instead of trying her level best to go through all the corrections, she gave out farewell sweets instead!!! ARGH!! I almost fainted in horror when I walked past my class.. thinking that she may request for more time to tie up all her loose ends!

Am i too demanding? - I doubt so.

I think my fault would be that I trusted her to do her job properly.. but I guess I did not monitor her enough and breathe down her neck enough...

Lesson Learnt : Next time, cannot leave things to trainee... NEVER!!! >.<"
