May to June...

Well, this is my last week of working from home.  Next week we go back to school.  But still not the same.  Students only stay until lunch and then go home.  So teachers kind of have the afternoons for prep stuff.  Have to bring our own lunch though.
Then the next week is more usual, students stay the full day.  And school lunch is provided.  But we all have wear face masks and no contact.   Meaning no handouts or even getting close to each other.  Such fun when we're trying to engage student interest in another language....
ALT's have the option of a plastic face shield during lessons so students can see how our mouths move.  But not required unless the school asks.
Summer is going to be a lot shorter.  No breaks in July and we work two weeks in August.  So only two weeks off for summer.  At least we get paid more, August is usually a very tight payday.
No speech contest for now, though they may have something later.
Getting warmer outside, which means my apartment is getting hot in the afternoon.
Everything else is kind of uncertain...but that's 2020's motto so far.
