Our Thought for the week at school is: Food for thought. I asked my tutees to search the internet for something to explain the thought of the week. [they do like to work in Power Point to do such tasks and they are quite good at adding animations and all sorts of effects.] I didn’t expect them to know what it means and thought to see what they come up with. [Inductive learning/teaching] A couple thought it means something in the line of healthy food and how to stay healthy, a few others also thought it’s something to do with food. The opportunity was mine to explain to them what it actually means. Co-incidently, I’ve received an email today with some lovely pictures and the subject line of the email says: Food for your mind. That ties in well with our thought of the week and I liked this image and message in particular. Please click on the image to read the food for your mind, it says: Never explain yourself to anyone. The person who likes you doesn’t need it and the person who dislikes you, won’t believe it. This is similar to the one on my side bar saying: Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
