Hi all, I have just read the letter that Ran Erez wote to all English teachers on the Irgun site concerning projects and HOTS. While everything he wrote about the projects is true, he unfortunately does not give advice on what to do if an examiner who arrives at a school and demands a project. It's all very well telling us to stand firm, but he is not the one who will have to face the pupils, their parents, and the principal, if the pupil fails the test because he didn't do a project. And there are teachers who have said they would fail pupils in this situation. For this reason, against my better judgement, and with a heavy heart, I AM doing a quick project, although, up till now, for the last 2 years, I have kept to all the sanctions that the Irgun decided on.
