A simmering adventure
Hi!
The previous week was one of preparation. A few months ago I started the check-in trajectory for Aan de Slag voor de Klas, a program for new teachers to earn their qualification. I’ve finished my portfolio, which is used as the basis for an assessment at the beginning of December.

I’m leaning towards a preference for the PlayStation 5, but maybe that’s because I own one of Sony’s console now. Anyway, I’ll wait at least a few months before making any buying decisions. Until then, check out this review of a (modded) PlayStation 5.
That’s it for this week. Thanks for reading!
