Contrary to what’s written in the events calendar, there will be no board meeting this Friday, July 11.    The next board meeting will be in September.  Check the NVWP events calendar for details.

Full descriptions of the presentations which will be given at the 2008 Bernadette Mulholland Glaze Language & Learning conference are now available.  Click here to be taken to the complete list.

We’ve just added an email discussion group for Teacher Consultants. If you’re a TC, we hope you’ll join.

Why should I join?

Email discussion groups make it easy for busy teachers to stay in touch. By joining the group, you can maintain a conversation with other TCs without having to find the time to visit a site or remember contact information–the conversation comes to your inbox.

Through the group, you can …

• share resources and experiences
• discuss teaching ideas
• announce events
• ask for help
• or just stay in touch with others who are passionate about writing and teaching

How do I join?

Joining is easy: just enter your email address in the form on the TC Community page.

You’ll receive a confirmation email asking you to verify your membership. Once you’ve confirmed your membership, you can start participating in the conversation right away.

To send a message to the group, just compose an email from the address you registered and send it to: nvwp[at]googlegroups[dot]com

To reply to a message from the group, just hit “reply” and write your response. (But remember, your response will be sent to the group, not just the author of the message.)

That’s it! But before you rush over there and sign up, you might want to take a minute to decide which email address you want to use. Read through some of the more detailed directions below…

Obviously, the site is under revision, but we’re close to completion. Over the next few days, more content and resources will be added, so keep checking back often. When the new site is fully functional, we’ll post a news item with details about the changes and services.

If you have questions in the meantime, please contact the office.
