Day 19 – Writing

As a  teacher, I spend a lot of my time either writing, helping others to write, or correcting writing…

It often becomes a task, a chore almost, something to be done quickly to get on to the next thing. I took this shot before I had started teaching my own class, though had plenty ‘classroom hours’ racked up by way of teaching practice.

I love the obvious care for his work that the scribe is showing, with the page neatly tucked in under the leather strap and the momentary pause before he begins his work, spent contemplating and revering both his skills and the work he is about to undertake.

We don’t do that enough, anymore…
