Juneathon Day 11: Some sense of purpose...

Today I went walking with Doris and Mik...

And then I had lunch...

And then I started marking...

And then I fell asleep whilst marking...

And then I went to the shop and bought yummy stuff that will make me fat...

And then I ate too much yummy stuff and felt sick...

And then I carried on marking...

And then I fell asleep again...

And then I blogged...

And then I marked my own writing

And I only gave it 5 out of 18: Clear communication of ideas with more sense of audience and purpose. Uses some organisational devices appropriately with occasional conscious selection of words. 

And then I thought that was not good because I am an English teacher 

and people will judge me 

and they will think that is bad and that I am not very good...

And then I thought maybe I should change it 

and write a better blog rather than this blog 

which would only be marked 5 out of 18 

if I was being marked by a GCSE examiner...

And then I realised that I'm not writing in a GCSE examination 

and I'm already a teacher 

and an examiner so it doesn't actually matter.

And then I said to myself 'you should stop writing

 because this is getting ridiculous and long'.

And then I realised that now my writing wasn't even a 5 out of 18 any more 

because I had written too much and had lost awareness of my audience 

who had now probably stopped reading 

so now it was only 4: 

an occasional sense of audience and purpose. 

Ideas sequenced simply.

And then I thought 'I better stop now because there is no sense in what I'm doing'.

And then I did.
