Acknowledgements
I would like to express deep gratitude to my colleagues and students at Overland
Learning Centre, Toronto District School Board, for making my years of teaching so
rewarding. Special thanks to Estelle Cohen, Grant Reimer, Lisa Kattelus, Janet
Timbrell and Sandra Martin.
Thanks especially to all of my students who complained, English is a crazy language!
Their very words gave me the opening line of several of my chants, and inspired me to
develop the activities to go along with them.
Thanks
To Sue Warden for asking me to write a chant using should for a medical theme in
her classroom so many years ago, when I was her volunteer. That was my
beginning.
To Margo Brown, Ruth Grant, Jo-Anne Page, Nellie Jacobs, Marla Lukofsky, Susan
Skolnik, Elaine Rose, Clara Tobias and Brenda Zuker for their input.
To my husband, Harold, who painstakingly and lovingly helped me design all the games
and dealt with the many computer issues that I faced.
To Thane Ladner, Canadian Resources for ESL, for working with me, refining things
and making this publishing experience an absolute joy.
To both Harold and Thane, whose voices add so much to the CD. And thanks
Marieke Meyer and Mark McGivern for tossing in some variety.
To Hugo Arias, whose illustrations add humour and fun to the book.
And to my kids and grandkids: Nadine, Barry, Josh, Jordan, Stephen, Linda,
Ashley, Jake and Rachel for filling my life with love and richness.
