500 middle school teachers from the NYC public schools attended a professional development workshop on Thursday, March 30, 2006 in NYC during the 53rd annual Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. Chair Nancy Gadbois focused on literacy via the videos of Carole Fredericks.



“Carole Fredericks left a wealth of pedagogical possibilities for the teacher of French who wants a vibrant classroom where the French language is reflected through her pop, rock, soul and gospel music.”
