Melody's Presentation, on the Calgary Study Tour and Writing Projects
This afternoon, Melody (陳美麗老師) gave a presentation on this summer's three-week Calgary study tour, based on her observation as one of the leaders. In her opinion, an important factor determining whether the students enjoyed the tour or not was the host family. Besides, she pointed out that to expect students' English to improve by leaps and bounds within three weeks is unrealistic. However, she added, the experience did plant the seed of love for English in students' mind.

A List of Supplementary Materials for Teaching "I Have a Dream"
The following is a list of what my colleague Chris (林詠梅老師) prepared for Unit 5 "I Have a Dream." She put all the supplementary materials in a file, including some film clips and documents, and shared them with all the teachers of senior students. We owe her a debt of gratitude.
Thanks to the Internet and YouTube, we now don't need to go to the library or buy CDs and videos for a single lesson. Just with a few clicks, we got all these supplementary materials in hand to use in class. It's a blessing indeed.

Accept; Don't Expect
"Accept; don't expect."
This is a sentence I read in Ron Clark's The Essential 55. Ron Clark is an award-winning teacher in the US. In the book he offered 55 rules for his students to follow. Though I forgot many, I remember some, and "Accept; don't expect" is one of them.
