First TMA is in

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Sandra Hutton, Thursday 2 December 2021 at 16:01

Ive been furloughed from my very part time job, and this has allowed me some extra time to use for my studies. What a nice start this has been. The materials I have been working from are all of very high standard so even this pleases me nowadays. You can actually see I don't get out much !! But its the simple things in life for me.

Part 1 of my TMA was a written exercise of 250 words. My thoughts? Oh my word where do I start, Ive read the whole of the first part of my book that has been provided, Ive watched the video excerpt's and Ive completed all the activities. How on earth do I get all of that into 250 words. Panic set in, however once I just thought it through I managed 250 words. Whether Ive answered the question correctly is another matter.

Part 2 was in 50 words self reflection. New to this palaver, I gave it a go and hopefully this is fine too. Then the last part was the forum post. So I wrote about my street as it is now compared to what it was like in lockdown.

This has been a very enjoyable piece of work that I feel I have put time and effort into. I know it will get harder, however for me, this is a massive achievement. I am so glad that Im not the only one in this position and delight in coming to the tutorials where I can get new words and try and fit them into my assignments as the months go on.

Now that the first part has been submitted, I can take the dog out for a walk and go and make some soap to relax. But, what I can assure you of,  is that there are no gobbledegook words in any part of the assignment.

Have a nice day and good luck with those submissions. Once you put it in, go and celebrate with whatever you do to mark a special occasion. Well done
