http://bclcira.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
British Columbia Literacy Council of the International Reading Association. Wednesday, February 18, 2009. Phyllis and the Celebrate Literacy Award. I need a picture. I can't believe I didn't retrieve my camera to take a picture of Phyllis Simon at our recent event. Phyllis was the recipient of our Celebrate Literacy Award. I won't bore you with my whole speech but I can't imagine Vancouver (and now North Vancouver and South Surrey) without Kidsbooks. Links to this post. Sunday, February 8, 2009.

British Columbia Literacy Council of the International Reading Association. Friday, May 15, 2009. Blogs have a way of making me feel guilty but then of course, I am never sure who actually reads them. This one I haven't added to for quite some time. We had a small yet enthusiastic group at the discussion of the work of Donald Leu and all thoroughly enjoyed the school tour and good conversation and wine. Thanks to our gracious hosts at Dickens! A special guest at the Canadian reception was Jenny Clay, dau...

BCLCIRA: December 2008
http://bclcira.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
British Columbia Literacy Council of the International Reading Association. Sunday, December 7, 2008. Don't forget to register for Don Leu etc. As said before, trying to keep two blogs going is a real challenge so that it has taken me awhile to get back to this one! My latest great idea is one stolen from NCTE, let's make October 20, a Provincial (or even National) Day of Writing. NCTE. Reminder, early bird registration saves you $20 so please register before Christmas to take advantage!

BCLCIRA: Jerry Johns fall conference
http://bclcira.blogspot.com/2009/05/jerry-johns-fall-conference.html
British Columbia Literacy Council of the International Reading Association. Sunday, May 17, 2009. Jerry Johns fall conference. When I returned home I received a note from Jerry saying how nice it was to meet me. That kind of sums up Jerry Johns, always thoughtful and fun as well. Jerry has come to Vancouver on several occasions and proven always popular. He is an excellent presenter but again always shows that interest in people and his care of what is best for students.
