Hey doooods,
I took a school trip today. It was quite amusant. The things that the kids got most excited about were; the clock on the bus; the tv on the bus and the bus seat arm rests.
The trip, however, was not as funny as my dance class tonight. I was the most rubbish I have ever been! We started a new routine and it's based on Lindyhop moves. Damn that Lindyhopping. It has defeated me once again!
I do not not not like being defeated! *sound of hooves stomping*
P.S. I woke up with "Grandma's key" written all over my neck yesterday. Just another normal day.

Grandma's key
Ni hao!
The Giant African Landsnails are even more exciting than expected. Last week I cleaned out the tank and put some new moss in for them. They all went crazy and hung upside down from the lid. I spoke to the guy who lent them to us and he said they were being stroppy because they were cross with me. I took a firm 'like it or lump it' attitude with them and it turned out that they actually liked the moss. In fact, they liked it so much that they had a very busy weekend laying lots of eggs. There was me thinking that the science lesson on snail mating was a wasted hour!
I know it's a little evil, but I also enjoy how much the snails freak some people out. It makes me chuckle to myself when people get the heebie jeebies over them. Ok, so it's a lot evil. Frigging funny though.
10 more sleeps until I'm done x
P.S. I read an article in the paper at the weekned about a family who bought a zoo. It made me want a zoo.

From Clementines to Mandarin
Hiya,
Sorry I haven't written in ages. I'm such a spoon. Lots of stuff is going on at the mo. I am 17 working days off being a qualified teacher and loving my current placement. Our topic this half term is minibeasts, which means we can spend loads of time outside looking under rocks and pretending to be butterflies. It also means I get to have some giant African landsnails in my classroom. It is so so so exciting!
I am trying to teach the kids to do the register in Mandarin Chinese but I'm really stuck. I have got as far as teaching them 'hello' but I can't find an accurate translation for 'sandwiches please' or 'hot dinner please'. Can any one help? I really hope so.
