Pancakes!

Mmm, pancake day… and only three days of the course left to go!

I’ve spent the whole evening trying to adapt a very far-fetched game I came up with for yesterday’s lesson - part of the course is that we have to use a game in our final lesson, and then adapt it if it didn’t work, and hand it in with a rationale. My game involved students giving reviews in the passive of English books they probably hadn’t read… a pretty difficult thing to do! (I did give them a synopsis, but most of them just read that out, instead of producing any language). I’d far rather just scrap it and invent a new game, but we have to use the one from the lesson.

Oh well. At least I no longer have five million other things I’m supposed to be doing at the same time. Although it is possible that some things will be returned to me tomorrow, to be re-done, if they’re not good enough. It’s nice really, that we get the chance to redeem ourselves if our first attempt isn’t quite right. But it would also be really rather annoying!

Right. Back to being irritated with that game…
