Currently reading The Artists Way which advocates an artist date a week. Today patchwork and sewing. I made a Coaster. Not bad as a beginner!

Working on subject guides this morning...I do love these for clarity - not just for me but for the kids and parents too.

Time to do some goal setting - or as my friend called it my own self development plan. What are your own goals? Especially away from work!

Working on IB Assessment Starter Packs for each subject today. Majority of staff are new to the IB so clarity + support essential. Incl: assessment standards, policy, past papers, marking grids, grade boundaries etc etc. Our job as leaders is to make the life of our staff easier.

Ppl guides are a really good reference resource. My IB Lang Lit SL guide has an overview of core IB components as well as a breakdown of our course + all the rubrics. Going to do one for IG too once Assessment INSET is planned.

First job sorting out the calendar / diary / planner. I keep mine electronically. Super easy. Add in all lessons - type in lesson detail + bold when the lesson is planned. Add in all meetings, key deadlines etc. I've put a blank one here: sites.google.com/view/engteac...

Walking the streets of Helsinki ☀️

Helsinki is glowing in sunshine and I'm getting stuck in to some traditional food!

Today I travelled over to Helsinki - the sun is shining and the parks are full. People are smiling and I have four days here to enjoy myself!

Leg 4/5 coming to an end. Everyone raves about Tallinn and it's nice (especially when the sun is out) but Vilnius still has my heart. Tomorrow we see what Helsinki has to say for itself!

After three hours of Toddle DP training, I am even more appreciative today of my hotel's chocolate hour -- yes, that is a thing!

It was a beautiful morning in Tallinn this morning

It's a cold spitty day so a chance to stop sit still and start this. Some deep questions for consideration here!

When in Estonia, go for Vietnamese. It's pretty darn good - albeit 5 times the price.
