Educator Reading Club | 24 September 2016

Dear Educators in Singapore, We are having our first Educator Reading Club meet-up on 24 September 2016. We will be reading Learning Together with Young Children: A Curriculum Framework for Reflective Teachers, focusing on 1 to 2 chapters each time we meet.  The meet-ups would be held once a month.  We found two book sellers that you could buy the book from:  Amazon  and  Book Depository . Alternatively, you could check with Times Bookstore, MPH or Kinokuniya if they have the book in stock. It would be helpful if you have the copy of the book prior to the meet-up but do join us for the first meet-up even if you were not able to get the book in time. Please RSVP via email to reserve a spot. Subscribe  to our E-Newsletter to receive latest updates on our continuing professional development programmes and other early childhood news.
