Many of you will remember our lovely Indonesian Teaching Assistant, Asti, who worked with Jo Peard at Woollooware High School in 2012 and from the ELTF program at the IALF in Bali. Asti has been putting together a wonderful new website for Indonesian teachers called Learn Indo. There are lots of resources for teachers sorted into sections such as Grammar, Culture, Songs, Languages Skills and so on. It is a work in progress and Asti is keen for teachers to contact her with feedback and suggestions for other resources you would like included on the site. Terima kasih banyak Asti!

Greetings

I teach Year 9 Indonesian at a small country school in Victoria, and I would like to develop an online collaborative project with another Year 9 Indonesian
class.

I would love to develop a two week project focusing on "Our place in the World" and hopefully resulting in a skype session and other forms of online collaboration.

If this is something you are interested in, please contact me via email at mheintze@wmyc.vic.edu.au

I look forward to working with you.

Michelle Heintze
