nnyTotal nerves about tomorrow, but in the positive excited bouncy kind of way rather than depression and scaredity. :D
I am basically conning all my classes into providing a bit of description of themselves for me. Year 7s are discussing fairytales (traditional and non) and describing themselves as if they were in one; year 8s are looking at transcription and phonetics and writing about themselves in code; year 9s are looking at hyperbole in advertising and using that to advertise aspects of themself using ridiculously overblown synonyms, and year 10 are writing a film review of their character/life so far. Then I'm going to use choice parts of all of their descriptions to make a worldle word cloud for each of my classes. Next week we'll do the whole scheme of work thing.
