Morning all,

Hugs to everyone who needs or wants one. OH has just gone off to the Building society to find out if he can get a mortgage. I'm off to the gym for 10 and then meeting him in town for lunch at M&S (using his voucher from work to pay for it).

Thank you for all of the good luck messages for my interview next Wednesday. I was supplying in a school yesterday that I do some fairly regular supply at, and asked the art expert there for advice. She has helped me to plan the lesson and given me advice on how I could follow it up. She couldn't think of anyone who was famous for painting butterflies, but the brief says:

Please consider an artist working with nature e.g. butterflies, wild flowers etc. Discuss a painting from the artist (please include a lesson plan on how you would take the learning further)

so she suggested I look at Georgia O'Keeffe as she painted enlarged flower heads. I will have to find out if the school have magnifying glasses and sketching pencils etc that the children can use to help them, but hopefully this should be a nice lesson. She also gave me tips on how to support children who are struggling, so it was great. Feeling quietly confident about the observation part now - just need to make sure that I don't talk too much, so the children have enough time to work - 30 mins for a lesson isn't very long at all if they have to be "actively learning".

I must do some flying before I go though, as don't think I've got any stars yet this week cos dipped out of the thread again.

Anyone fancy a HHC 915-9.45?

sexymouse make sure your intro/starter isn't too long, and you do a plenary.

We, between us have done bathroom S and S, checked the oil and water levels (yes on the house!) DH is cleaning downstairs loo, and have detailed parents to get cash out for me!

It's a family affair today!

Mrs B and SS glad I wasnt the only one that read pigpen's 'gardening' post the wrong way!!!

Cheers for the reminder, I'd actually forgot so when I read your post I went and took one.

If I stay and type I will depress yous all, going to lie down for a while and when I feel in higher spirits I'll come back

I also had to do a double take at pigpens post:rotfl:

Happy Flying..........
