Since going back to school four weeks ago, not one single week has been to timetable. I’m all over the place, and I don’t like it. I think a lot of this is contributing to my issues with posting here. I am in such a tizz, that I just don’t know what to do with […]
I need the weekend to come. Even though I’m far behind with marking – further than I can ever remember being – I need it to be Saturday.
Today has flown by. I had great plans to get plenty done by getting to work early – but an accident in the fog on the M62 meant that a few members of staff were stuck and were late getting there. I offered to take over until they came. This set me back an hour […]
Plenty: 259=3²+5²+15²= 3²+9²+13² so, it can be expressed as the sum of three distinct squares in two different ways. It can be expressed as the sum of four cubes in two different ways. 259=2³+2³+3³+6³=1³+2³+5³+5³. It is semi-prime in that it is a number that is the product of two distinct primes: 7×37. I have had another […]
This has happened a few times over the course of this project now – a day so unremarkable (or so full or stuff) that there is very little to say about it. It was a day of helping people out, a bit of tidying and a little slice of teaching as I took the Year […]
I have no idea. A return to Harlow Carr is on the cards this weekend, but between now and then is full of question marks. I have two afternoons out of school – one for a meeting and one for a funeral – but no real plans for what I’m doing at work as there […]
I have no idea where his weekend has gone. I have done nothing of use and achieved even less. Still, I have a fairly long but straightforward week at work ahead of me. Not particularly looking forward to that at all, but each day is a step closer to the summer holiday that my brain […]
I seriously need a break… It doesn’t help that I keep taking on ridiculous ideas and plans which further clutter up my life. I really need to say no to people more often. I have put off helping one particular person out until the Summer holiday period, but know that the job they want me to […]
That’s all I’ve done this evening, make a spreadsheet for Mrs Pitts. Work was ok, nothing unusual or spectacular happened. I had a governor meeting at the end of the day in the evening – 6:30pm start – which meant a late arrival home and the request for data! So, all in all, I’ve just […]
It feels like a long way away still. Just two working days left until the May half term. Lots to get done. My reports are about half way finished but I can’t see that I will get any time to work on them before next Monday now – possible Sunday. Not ideal, but not a disaster […]
