@mradamhill I can't swim as an adult and it really upsets me. We went swimming in Year 6 once a month for four months. Not great for girls reaching a certain age. I would've loved an intensive course.

@HFCHSThornton Hey did you know this is password locked?

@MrBamBoo_teach Give the poor kids a ruler for a guide. 😆

Students writing their names on my English board. :)

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

English/EFL/SEN teachers, would anyone like to create a pen pal system with me and my schools in Japan? I teach in two elementary schools (up to age 12).

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

We have projectors and a screen that sticks on the board too. ;) We also have a fax machine in regular use in the staff room... gives me dial up flashbacks.

[Educator Supe @ShakinthatChalk]

Probably the most technologically advanced nation on the planet uses a chalkboard for teaching.

Think about that.

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

I have blackboards and my handwriting looks atrocious on them. 😪

Who remembers the rolling blackboard?

The deer in Nara are friendly. They eat senbei that you can buy for 200 yen. They will come to you and bow if they are hungry. You can find them around the parks and the temples. It was sunny today so most were in the shade.

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

Been soaking up Nara today.

The laminator is my best friend. Who wants to learn shapes!?

A 27 degree Kyoto.

Has a pen EVER exploded on you? In my 32 years of life it has never happened but it seems to happen to my pupils everyday...

[Adam Boxer @adamboxer1]

Isn't it SO WEIRD that there's a massive positive correlation between

"Students who are generally badly behaved"

And

"Students who always need the toilet in lessons"

SO WEIRD

My Year 6s finished primary school today and it was so nice seeing them in their cute little outfits. They all did a speech about their goals in the future. The ceremony was so formal. Japan takes graduations very seriously.

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

I don't get half terms. Been chugging along since December. 😭

[Mr Firth @mister_firth]

Is it just me or has this been the
l o n g e s t half term ever. How is there STILL 3 weeks left!?

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

WAGOLL for Year 4. They're making books about their day.

[MissJacobsen @MissJacobsen1]

Made bookmarks for my graduating class. They love joined up writing. 😅 中学校で頑張れます!
