Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
Schools are such busy places
Even before the kids arrive
Teachers must prep and plan
Teachers must socialise
The greet “Good Morn”
The forgotten changes of plan
The unexpected fire drills
The student found dramas
The failing IT
Schools are such busy places to be
Lunch times are such a rush
There’s play ground duty
Detentions too
Your job list to get through
And don’t forget to go to the loo
Sometimes I find myself slipping out
And doing the anti-social
I find myself leaving lunch
Much sooner than I planned too
I slip unnoticed into my space
My Learning Goal I put in place
I write the todo list on the board
And then I sit and stay there
I breathe in deep
A few times more and just
Enjoy my empty classroom.
