Author's Note
What's it all about? 
In each BLOG, I write about everyday experiences with an educational peppering.
"So your BLOG's for normal people as well as teachers?" I am asked.
(What a cheek! Aren't teachers normal people?) 
"So what's your BLOG about Chris?....... What's its theme?"
I answer, "No idea really, but I hope - to live and learn"

Please tell me if you are visiting from a country I have not listed above. I'd love to welcome you by emailing you back.
 
 
How this website came about 
This website started from the teacher training notes of a once-a-week course I ran in 2007 for 16 Dominican teachers over 8 weeks. The teachers wanted to "cascade", (as they chucklingly say at the image), information back to their colleagues in their 8 schools. The website was set up for them to use as reference. Now, many more schools, both in Dominica and in other countries, refer to the Show-me-WOW! website. And visitors also include people from many places, who visit this lovely island either in person or in their dreams and who want to send supplies to help in Dominican schools
 
 
The BLOG
From its beginning, the BLOG page has  been in the top 5 favourites on the Show-me-WOW site, which it is why I think the BLOG ought to continue.
