Dear All,
I want to to thank all the English teachers who took 4 hours out of their
very busy day and attended the Mini- ETAI conference at Beit Yerach High
School. yesterday ( Feb. 3rd) IT was a really interesting conference with
a lot of teachers (around 70 !!) from the area. A big thank you to Avi and
Penny on interesting and enjoyable talks. Another great big thank you to
Stephanie, Shelly and Elaine on enriching us with their meaningful and
useful talks which left us with new ideas to use in the classroom and a
million thanks to my English staff from Beit Yerach for the very hard work
in organizing the day.
AND no ETAI conference is complete without the book publishers. So more
thanks go to ECB for the bags and folders, to UPP for the refreshments and
to Richard (Pearson) for the pens. AND to Wiz Kids , Zig Zag , Ashely and
Lexicon for coming NORTH.. to us country folk.
It was really exciting seeing so many teachers learning and sharing ideas.
. I hope it's only the first of many days like this.
AND last but not least, thanks to Fran and Penny for all their support and
help .

PS. AND thank you Marna..
