I don't think they taught wordle back in your school days.
It's all jmac does with his kids - they're going to be incredible at it.
Even if they did, I probably would've been thinking about Jenny sitting next to me and if I should kiss her after school

I think we all had a Jenny/Johnny at school.

In all seriousness, spelling is a major issue in schools these days.

It's always been a major issue. One new method after another of teaching it wins favour. English is a stupid language really. With only 5 vowels having so many different sounds, it's confusing to learn. Thai for instance has 40 vowels and 40 consonants each representing a different sound. Although you've got many letters to learn, there's little doubt which to use if the word's sound is known. I have never really enjoyed teaching English as a 2nd language. Anyway, off to do some wordling.
That was quick!

I use it with ESL kids - good for blends and prediction.
Uses up time too. With a large class you could do a spelling crocodile.

Requires nothing more in terms of preparation than booking them into the library to select a book.

Yesterday I spent four hours at the Hawks' school holiday footy clinic because my two sons are fans. Witnessing my boy hand over his Hawks guernsey (adorned with number 33 FFS) to Blake Harwick for an autograph left me feeling utterly empty inside.

That’s called a failure of parenting

I have a pretty substantial classroom library so we just stay put. Always read first thing in the morning, after lunch and after recess.
The kids actually enjoy the quiet time.

More abuse from the Bin Lady this evening. Calling me a “dumb arse” (fair point).
Saying that no one likes us and we should move out.
All because I have parked our second car in front of our next door neighbour. Who have a three car garage and don’t care where we park.
Having a beer tonight.

I’m a terrible speller. Must be why I became a teacher!

Buy her a bunch of flowers and give with a smile, the problem is hers.

My wife keeps telling me to completely ignore her, just blank her out.
It’s bloody hard to do.

Wife advice is usually the best
Happy wife, happy life
nah, to nice.
I personally would go to her front verandah and squish my face against her front window (exposing my nostrils) and start licking the window - in conjunction with yelling out "Go Port Power", works every time, no more future hassles
No worries
I wouldn't waste my money on her. She is never going to change.
