Teaching with picturebooks in Ghana

Fantastic – our donated books in action, being used by 3rd year student of  Pabo Avans Hogeschool (Breda, NL) to teach English in Ghana.

Really lovely to see how Laura & Thom are using picture books during their teaching placement. For more photos check out English for Kids Foundation https://www.facebook.com/efkf.org/?fref=nf

TLEL 2017 picture book list

And here comes my professional photo-shoot of some of the picture books that have made it onto the updated 1-2-3 lists and my new 2017 picture book list for Dutch primary schools. Please note the two drawings by my girls which they said had to ‘go on fb with the books’. For more info on the 1-2-3 packs and / or to access the full lists, please click here.

Picture Books & Pabo

Busy weekend preparing books for 17 Pabo Avans Hogeschool students who are soon leaving to Teach English Abroad and 4 Exchange students at pabo Avans teaching English at local Breda primary schools.

One photo shows the 34 new picture books very kindly donated by the The American Book Center for our pabo TEA students to take to their host schools in Ghana, Curacao etc. The other photo shows book packs (20 books each – used & newly donated by ABC) for the Dr. De Visserschool and for the Kbs De Burchtgaarde. Both schools are part of The Little English School Library project and have been working hard on setting up their own English library. The Exchange students will take these packs as they will be teaching English at these local primary schools.
