“Why does sleep elude me when I need it the most?” – Ritu
I’m sorry it’s a ‘one line’ with an explanation – again!
I’ve been really tired again recently, and to top it off, Lil Princess thinks it’s a great idea to wake in the middle of the night, and appear in our bed.
Usually, I don’t realise, but last night (early this morning) at 4.30 am, she dutifully turned up, and since then I haven’t slept.
Instead, my mind has been full of thoughts surrounding playing cards (Alice in Wonderland topic in one class), staff placement, Purple Mash Log-ins (online learning platform), Jack and the Giant (Jack and the Beanstalk topic in other class), and shape activities…
Because I am being observed today, by my head teacher, but I also have to cover another class in the morning too… And somehow fit a little planning in too…
And before you think ” Well that’s not fair! Being observed when you are in and out all day!”, I was meant to be observed two weeks ago, but my arm and the snow week put paid to that. Booked this date in before I realised that I was already meant to be covering the other class.
So it’s my own fault really, and I didn’t want to change the observation date as it has been hanging over me for the last few months!
I just hope a huge yawn does not escape from my mouth mid lesson while I am being watched!!!
