Just reflecting on a week that widened my smile and brightened my day a little more than usual! Breaking the monotony of uni studies about a month ago, I had a group assignment and decided to spice it up with a video. Our task was pretty bland and one-dimensional, being asked to come up with an assessment task designed for a grade 5/6 class. With a small filming crew on board, I whipped up a script and we ended up having the most rad time creating a cheesy presentation that was probably going to be more entertaining to us than anyone else. That being said, I have a whole new appreciation for people who do filming and editing...the short clip took a full day to film and allllll night to edit! The people in my group put all shame aside and threw themselves into whatever was asked of them, and it very quickly became less like hard work and more like mucking around with some mates. I don't think I'll ever forget this experience. After more than a handful of catastrophic group assignments throughout the past 3 years, I am so grateful for the amazing people in my class who encapsulate everything that a young, vibrant and determined primary school teacher should be. We HD'd it, naturally :P
