Taking responsibility for yourself

I just finished watching the movie Rocky Balboa. A story about a boxer who comes back to fight again. Not a very good movie, but it had this speech from a Dad to his son which I found quite interesting. Maybe have a look at it and write back what you think it has to do about being responsible. I think it has a good message for all of us. Let me know what you think.

Let me introduce myself.

Hi guys

This is your other teacher, Mr T, writing from home. I am currently lying on my bed with my leg up. The operation was completed on Tuesday and I was back home on Wednesday.

I have set up this blog so you can write your stories, use it as a journal writing exercise or just to say hello and ask me how it's going. I will occasionally write posts about what I am up to and some thoughts about teaching and learning that you may want to comment on. I might also write some things about how you can get on better with each other and be responsible for your actions, so watch this space.
Have a great term. Hope to hear from you. All you have to do to leave a message is click on the comment at the end of a post, write what you are thinking and leave your name. That way I know who has wrote what.

As the term progresses you might want some of your work put on the blog. Just get Mrs Wakelin to e-mail it to me and I will do my best to put it on.

See ya

Mr T
