SCTU course

Spent 3 days attending the Singapore Chinese Teachers' Union reading club course at Sims Avenue Centre. Besides Yifen and her colleagues, met Corinne on the second day of the course.

The course is very enriching: the picture books and activities introduced to encourage students to cultivate the love for reading were the highlights for me. The planning part was quite tedious as we have to apply what the lecturer taught almost immediately. The concept is to structure questions that guide students to share more and be involve in discussions during a reading club session.

Bought 3 books and have to control my spending cos the picture books, especially Jimmy's (taiwanese) were very attractive. =P
