Pembroke’s Special Day for Teachers!

I really wanted to let you all know about a workshop I’m participating in on Tuesday, November 3. This is a Free workshop introduces books that deal with managing classrooms, engaging students, and promoting literacy. You’ll have an opportunity to hear some new and favourite Pembroke authors as well as 3 children’s authors whose books your students love. It’s an ideal way to keep up to date, learn from teachers like you, and share your experiences with colleagues.

Spots are limited, so have a look at the program and if you think it will help, register early. Reserve your spot by phone 1-800-997-9807; fax 1-800-339-5568; email:alison@pembrokepublishers.com

Hope to see you there!
