I’m always a bit lapsed in August, like that bloody White Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland, there’s never enough time. Although next week I have an exciting post to write so watch this space haha, anyaways back to now, or should I say the last two weeks.The workshop in which I teach was a dump. You know when people haven’t had a system? This was them. “Hey, where’s the small roofing square, buddy?”
“On the shelf in the cupboard,” he replies.
“Nope” say I.
I then spent the next half hour looking for it. I can’t work without a system it makes the job ten times harder. So entering my second full year at this college I decided to take it to task. Two weeks later we have a Workshop that is workable. My bricklaying tutor colleague and I dare I say friend? Well, he joined in and came up with a brilliant idea to brighten up the corridor where students can now start their journey by Hopscotching their way to lessons 😂 Yes, shock horror we’re trying ‘fun’ as a teaching technique.
So that’s why I have been lapsed recently, but this isn’t Peaky Blinders, so I doubt you were sitting on the edge of your chaise longue in eager anticipation 😉 Of course I say the revamped workshop looks fab but we have to wait and see what our students reaction will be yet 😂
Ooo, that looks tidy, Charlie! So there goes any hope of finding things next time… I believe in creative organised chaos personally, but it only works for me. And the thing about having fun while learning? Well that is the most effective way if you ask me. Nice one. If it’s a bit risque, berserk or quirky, maybe even fun, then it becomes more memorable. Look forward to the next post. Intriguing!

Creative organised chaos works in a World of one, but there are 4 of us in there and they are a nightmare haha. But I’m a bit fond of chaotic, berserk teaching, Dead Poets Society? Thank you so much for your input 😀
