After 3 days of online teaching 6 large classes of Years 7-10, I was wiped out...Huge amount of time spent checking that each student had a Google docs (linked with me) so I could view progress. English + Humanities programmes completely overhauled. Marking? Yet to be resolved.— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) April 19, 2020

Teachers' stress, grief and exhaustion...
two trees and two hills...

standing and staring...
Note to self... This is what standing and staring and breathing and being at peace with self is all about... https://t.co/POXxvu3iL0— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) April 19, 2020
Garcia Lorca drawings...
If you love the discordant appeal of Lorca's wild poetic landscapes, browse his drawings - as perhaps a small key to his themes and motifs in his poetry. A clear Dali influence.— Gemma Wiseman (@AuraGem) April 18, 2020

a snail tale...
In this grand, extended 'holiday-from-the-daily-macro-peak-hour' dramas,
I have decided to get closer to the microcosms in my own little world...
Last night, I sat on the steps outside my front door
by my faithful little bear guardian...
and there...on his hat...
was a friendly snail...
clearly, the snail was keen on exploring his new friend...
I am just not so sure about my little bear's point of view...
Perhaps he may have been blind-sided...
