I think it would also be good to note how many heads of departments are among the PLC.
Yes, let’s add that Angie. Drew Hiben and Robert Harrell in LA. I remember when Drew took that on as a young teacher with 10 traditional teachers in his department. Haven’t heard from him since.
I tutored Drew in Chinese by Skype in the early fall of this year (which was very fun for me, I think for him, too). We didn’t talk too much about school directly, but my sense was that he’s doing very well & enjoying teaching.
Carrie Toth, Illinois Teacher of the Year 2014
Diane was she an ACTFL finalist as well?
yes! just like Bob Patrick, I believe.
Yes, I think that’s right, so does that mean…. Carrie became the Central States TOY? I think that’s the right term. Same honor as Bob’s, different region, both honored at ACTFL.
That’s right, Diane, different regions and different years.
Robert Patrick: Parkview High School, Lawrenceville, GA; Latin Language Teacher – Southern Conference on Language Teaching 2014
Carrie Toth: Carlyle High School, Carlyle, IL— Central States Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages – 2015
Last month I received the 2015 Confucius Institute of Queensland (Australia) Excellence in Teaching Award which is a state level award for teachers of Chinese for continuous commitment to professional learning – particularly for my efforts in introducing CI/TPRS to the language teaching community here in Australia.
Thank you Ian – that’s what we’re looking for.
That is great, Ian! Congratulations!
Thanks Diane.
And I’m happy to see another Chinese teacher add a comment. I know there are more in this PLC…
Another type of recognition could be of those who have there own blog sites.
I just happened on this very thing and I see it has already been done.
It needs updating. It does not include Chris Stolz, for example.
I was honored to receive Northwestern High School’s TOY award in 2011-2012, Rock Hill School District, SC. If that’s what you’re looking for.
Yes exactly, Steve. Thanks.
So Skip is the Maine WL TOY for 2014 or 2015?
I was Alaska’s ToY for 2014, PNCFL for 2015 (or 2016, don’t really understand, but the plaque says 2015), and will be on the ACTFL stage in 2016 if I can find a place to teach next year!!
I heard back from Carol, but she can’t remember them all. She wrote this today:
Ooooh… That is so smart Ben. You’re right, we need to keep track of these people/winners!
Leslie Davison – CO TOY 2014
Annick Chen – CO TOY 2015*
Carrie Toth – Central States Regional TOY 2014
Grant Boulanger – MN TOY 2015*
Skip Cosby – TOY… not sure ME? *
Darcy Pippins – OK TOY 2015*
Diana Noonan – some big-shot award for which I do not know the name
Carol Gaab – 3 World Series rings… does it count if you won something based on someone else’s talent? ;} LOL
I know I’m missing some people.
*If all of these win their regions (Darcy and Annick face each other at SWCOLT) , they would face each other at the National level.
:)cj
The thing is Carol that you are a part of the San Francisco Giants organization as its language consultant and teacher of the players so I think those rings are well deserved!
Do you think that ACTFL would allow two or three of the five regional winners to be “TPRS” teachers?
Dang! what an awesome prospect, and lineup!!
