---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lauren Ornstein <laurenmadeline@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: coursebooks Hi All, I'm on my rant again about the plethora of practice books being thrown at us and the lack of new coursebooks. For a few years now, I keep hearing about new books "pending approval" of the new program. Well???? And what "new program"? Some of the "old" coursebooks we're using today I like a lot, such as New Points to Success for 11th -12th grade - 3 points. But it was tough to get copies of it this year and I doubt I'll be able to find enough for next year. I refuse to "teach Bagrut" and refuse to have my teachers do the same.with glorified practice books instead of coursebooks. We are ENGLISH TEACHERS! So, what do we do?
