October already?!

Hi everyone,
I hope the school holidays have been going well for you. It is really hard to believe it is October already! I have been reflecting on this year and also thinking about goals for next year. It is has been good to see the progress made but also what might be the next challenge. I am really excited to have study leave in our Semester 2 next year as I am planning to create more resources including videoed practice on the teaching of writing and multimodal texts. I hope these will be of value for the classroom and your students. I am also busy working on my research projects which are all going well. I am also thinking about some new possibilities for 2020 and beyond. Anyhow keep in contact and let me know how things are going as well as what support may help. Don't forget about our book on "How to write what you want to say about visual images" by Pat Hipwell, Lyn Carter and myself. We have already sold quite a few and schools are really enjoying using them to support senior students particularly in terms of the new ATAR system here in Queensland. Here is the link to the book: https://www.boolarongpress.com.au/product/how-to-write-what-you-want-to-say-about-visual-images/
Until next time. Georgina
