Physical Education today and the children are almost needing to be scraped from the ceiling. They enjoy the catching warm up games and then it's on to sprint practice. All of the running around is a great outlet for them and the races are taken very seriously.
Introduce my card games during their lunch break. "Donkey" is clearly number one, closely followed by "Pairs", with "Happy Families" lagging well behind. They have yet to grasp the concept of the latter, and it should take off once they give me a chance to explain the rules. Dominoes is also going down a storm and attracts considerable interest from teachers and pupils alike.
Computing in the afternoon goes well, and the classes listen very attentively before receiving their mini laptops. They are so focused in their efforts to copy a passage on the board, that levitating off the ground and flying out the window wouldn't raise an eyebrow.
A visiting nurse arrives to give everybody a Yellow Fever shot as there have been confirmed cases in the area recently. She offers to give me one, but has run out of certificates- no certificate, no point. Anyway, I'm still covered (just) and don't want to overdo the thing. I could see it now: "Hey! Whats up with him?". "Oh, he overdosed on Yellow Fever again. Can't seem to leave the stuff alone."
