What I do know is this...
I am a teacher who wants to better. I want to teach better... more creatively... more personally. I want to get to know the children and understand where they are in their learning. What do they think of it?
I don't know where I'm going to go with this blog. I might become this guru who people seek out for sage advice. Alternatively I could end this blog really abruptly... I don't know. But here's where I want to start from...
Oh and by the way, I'm still gonna include some lovely pictures of my family. They're precious to me and my inspiration for me continuing with this.
I went to an Inset session where I openned my eyes to how we can be creative. I thought about this afterwards and thought about how I was as a child. I remembered when I was at school how I day dreamed a lot and how I sometimes sat on the side of the class on my own table. That table... by the window... with the withering plant. Then I thought about how I would often revise for exams by pacing around in my bedroom. I then thought about how now when I am stressed I think (sometimes overthink) things through when I am standing or doing something. I then questioned whether I was a kinesthetic learner.
During this creative session I was learnt that the best ideas often come from one stimulus. My stimulus is the term the kinesthetic learner.
I'm going to start with a concept map to map my ideas. I found this lovely software called Thoughtmuse. It's free and visual andhopefully will help me to sort all the ideas that bumping into each other in my head.
So lets start off then...
And that's where I am going to stop.
By the way, here's a gorgeous picture of Samuel in the leaves at Audley End, Essex during half term.
