Highlights from May's Forum

Communication was the host of the May 2008 English Teacher's Forum. They presented a well planned topic about issues related to lesson planning. The presentation included many activities such as role plays, kinesthetic activities, stories and open discussion. One of the questions discussed was: 'What might go wrong in a lesson plan?' Everyone joined in the discussion by eliciting possible answers and solutions.

Thanks Communication for hosting a very successful Forum!
