Teachers always make a difference in the lives of their pupils, but for
students having difficulties, we need to ensure that we are giving our
pupils that little bit extra. We need to develop effective teacher-student
relationships in order to promote learning in a positive environment.
“Most of us end up with no more than five or six people who remember us.
Teachers have thousands of people who remember them for the rest of their
lives.” (Andy Rooney)

Haya Arbitman High School Open Chat Session. Take this opportunity to have an open chat session with Haya Arbitman, the district high school counselor. You can ask questions about any facet of teaching in high school from literature to organizing your testing schedule, now that there are no bagrut exams in 10th grade.
Jane Cohen British Council: This writing workshop explores how teachers can help their learners to become better writers using a process approach to teaching writing. Through the incorporation of a few simple thinking routines, and handy educational tools, teachers will learn how to engage even the most reluctant authors to put pen to paper.
Jennifer Hoyzman- Adding Fun to English. This is a presentation that will provide teachers of all grades with practical ideas of how to get pupils excited about learning English. Soon all schools will be part of the new educational reform and teachers will have mandatory teaching hours added to their schedules. This presentation will provide ideas for the teachers to liven up their lessons and teaching. Some ideas that will be discussed are readers theater, a spelling bee, creating blogs/ newspapers, and videos.
