The BOE came to watch me teach today. Both Takahama Sensei and Kodama came. They were all dressed up in suits and had their clip boards and took notes on what I was doing. I taught grade 3's today and we did "What's this? and What's that?" We played What's this? Bingo and What's That Shouting game. The kids had a good time and used the target sentences quite a bit. Kodama Sensei told me later that I did very well and that she was impressed with how I taught the class. So that makes me very happy!!
I came to school sick this morning because I knew that the BOE was coming to watch today. Kondo sensei told me before school started that I could go home after the BOE came. He reminded me twice that it was ok to go home. lol Then at lunch time he said I looked terrible and should go home. But I still had two classes to teach and I didn't want to go home without teaching them because then I would be behind with 2 classes. That would suck for lesson planning. So I asked if I could combine the last two classes and teach them both 5th periode. He checked and told me that was fine.
The other thing that sucks about being sick is that in Japan when you are sick you have to wear a mask in order to keep your germs to yourself. So...I wore a mask all day to cover my mouth (not my nose or I coudln't see 'cause my glasses would fog up) and I coughed a lot and had to blow my nose a lot...and those little masks get wet...and ewwwww.
I really hope I won't need on tomorrow. Tomorrow I'm teaching 6th grade. We will be doing daily routines. Get up, eat breakfast, brush my teeth, go to school, do homework, play with friends, eat dinner, go to bed.... Should be interesting.

So after teaching the last class, which ended at 2:15, I filled out the paper work to go home sick. I got home just before 3 today. I hope things go better.
So today I'm going to take it easy. I have company coming tonight in about 3 hours and I need to straighten up my living room a bit, but otherwise I'm not doing anything today. I'm also going to be in bed by 9 tonight. I'm tired :(The other thing that sucks about being sick is that in Japan when you are sick you have to wear a mask in order to keep your germs to yourself.
