The excitement of the day was when this box was delivered mid afternoon!  Watch this space!  It came all the way from Berlin and the contents will be blipped in due course.  I'm not opening it till later in the week to let the excitement mount :-)   Another blipper is involved and all shall be revealed. 

The assessor for our course joined us online this morning from the north of England, co-observed the two online 45 minute lessons taught by our trainee teachers,  met the trainees on their own, and then we had 'the meeting', where we discuss grades and get feedback on how the course is run and from the trainees.   All good and always a relief.  Rest of the day, I made a big pot of chilli, did some housework downstairs - can't let the side down after Bb's efforts upstairs yesterday - and did some preparation for tomorrow when I take over teaching practice again for their 8th and last lesson.  This is the last week of this course.   Oh and renewed my annual membership for IATEFL (association) and ETP (journal).  The IATEFL online conference was excellent last year and I'd like to be able to attend again this spring. The association also offers lots of webinars throughout the year to members.   We'll be going for a walk in the rain soon, chilli for dinner and then some tv viewing.
