Get caught in a random act…

Read something really great lately and wish you had a place to share it?

Bring your lunch and join us in Random Acts of Reading Thursdays at lunch in room C115 (the strategy zone).  Share what you’re reading that really excites you or maybe you’ll find inspiration from others.

Readers of all types, speakers of all languages,  and students in grade 6 and above are welcome!

Welcome Back! and update on INSET

Happy New Year and Welcome back! I hope everyone had a restful and enjoyable holiday whether away or in Nanjing.

It’s hard to believe that we only have another 6 weeks before Chinese New Year. As you know, we will be running a significant portion of the February INSET (Feb 23-27) in a conference format. Thanks to those teachers who have already contacted me to lead sessions. We still have a few slots open, so please let me know by the end of this week if you would like to lead an hour session for some of your colleagues. Stop by and see me if you have any questions.

All the best for 2015,
Arden
