When I hear the word SATs it:
...starts a knot in my stomach that begins as a worm then grows into a dragon, twisting and turning and spurning and spiralling almost out of control.
...makes my mouth turn into a desert.
....causes me to feel trapped, like a lonely man in a prison cell.
...makes me want to scream like howling wind.
SATs made me feel nervous; I wanted you all to do your best. I wanted you to show everyone (teachers, parents, the governors, inspectors...) how amazingly talented and imaginative and unique you all are. However, it also made me furious that this was tested by pieces of paper. How can you show all the beautiful parts of your characters in a test? It still gets me angry. My blood is boiling right now! Yet in saying all that I still want you, mainly because we all have to, do absolutely amazing on your SATs this year just to show everyone else that you can, make everyone stand up and take notice. Our school is great...even if I'm not there! ;-)
Anyway, wow, I really went on a bit there. I'm sure you all got bored and began to dream about Zac Efron or Hannah Montana or Top Gear or Twilight or whatever crazy things you kids think about these days.
Speaking of crazy things, I watched a bit of Britain's Got Talent on You Tube today. I miss Ant and Dec. I miss Simon Cowell.
And another crazy thing (you should never start your sentences with 'and'....) I am coming home in June and will be in England until Christmas!! Werhoo! Bring on the yorkshire puddings!!
At the bottom I'm going to add some pictures for you. Enjoy!
Love,
Miss Swales
