[St. George’s College (WEEK 4) – Day #14-16]
DAY 14.
** Tuesday 11th October 2022 **
The school’s email told us that today was day one. I spent some time yesterday coming up with a worksheet for my Form One students to do in absence of our class. We also had a departmental meeting that started at 8:30 and then at 10:30 right after there was a staff meeting also on zoom.
I did not get the link to the first meeting on time so I took the time to write up the email. I was not sure exactly what I would say in that first email as a ‘teacher’ but I did fine. Only later in the evening, I harsh disappointment myself when I did not ask the people to reply. It would have been the only way to count attendance. Still have to find out who has working emails and some were from parents.
In the staff meeting, we had a short wait and then a prayer was said. Some events that occurred cannot be recorded here in the journal. We heard from some of the teachers present in school that the corridors were not very safe and some of them were leaking. I had a very weird feeling from one of the school’s five emails over the days about us having to be present in the staffroom and not being able to teach. Daddy’s response to it was true in a way.
The meeting concluded at 1:40. At one o’clock, I was having my lunch at the dining table still wondering about everything and listening to the meeting. I fell flat on the couch afterwards. It was a lot to take in.

DAY 15.
** Wednesday 12th October 2022 **
Today I was sooooo very late to ‘work’. That extra hour on the bed felt good that I awoke from the last phone screaming at 7:30. I darted into the shower and got the computer some minutes after eight. This was probably the latest so far.
I had music with Form One Mitchell for periods one and two. They got their emails and then Form One got theirs some minutes after twelve. The same issue with emails not working or could not be reached occurred. Now all the Form Ones had the worksheet; I hoped.
That night I constructed the answer sheet because I did not want to wait for the morning and have the class waiting. I was glad the information was able to fit on one sheet of letter-sized paper. Since there were two classes for the day, I spent the entire evening writing the attendance forms and then marking the student present on the new register sheets that I made. (The link above applied to this section.)

DAY 15.
** Thursday 13th October 2022 **
Today One Mitchell was the first to get the answers to review the worksheet. Some email replies were still coming in from two days ago and the other two classes. I’m gonna have to have a nice chat about that when the next scheduled time comes for them.
More of the lesson plans continued. I was able to do four lessons for the second term this week. Hopefully, by the weekend I would get to do some more or maybe finish that term and be typing them up.
