The Work Goes On

Thursday, March 26, 2020

Although schools have been closed, we teachers still have work to do.  We would have had our two-week Easter break in two more weeks anyhow, but the students are missing two weeks of school now and then probably more after they would have come back from that break in mid-April.  Either way, it's going to be longer than they really should go without studying.  So, we're trying to put together packets of work to send out to the students for them to work on at home.  Before they left school, the headmaster told them to stay in touch so we could let them know about work.  I know there will be some we can't reach, but we're trying to get work to everyone we can.  

I put together packets for my form 1 and form 3 English grammar students.  Mine have three parts: a study guide (notes on the topics), exercises to do, and a key to the exercises so that they (or their parents, ideally) can check their work after if they aren't able to return it to me to check.  Just for fun, I tried to use all of their names somewhere in the notes or exercises.  Form three was especially fun; I wrote a silly story about a whole group of them going to the market for one exercise.
