The Annals of Mac North

So I wanted to give the school a copy of the dvd to keep in the library, for other teachers to watch if they were interested. Turns out you don’t just do that. You give things to the school by giving them to the principal. fuck knows if he’ll put it in the library….

My last Japanese lesson is tonight!

And I’ve got the topics chosen for all of the 3rd year lessons until my contract is up. Today, I made the first batch of four. Tomorrow is another four and then that will put me out to the midterm in May. There’s yet a new method this year, so I need to see how the first half goes before making the second half. However, this is the most integrated lesson style I’ve seen to date (at this school, or any), so hopefully the kids will feel they’re learning something they will know how to use. I’ve gotten some good suggestions from the teachers finally!

Now if I could only figure out why my dv captures have suddenly lost the audio tracks….
