How do you call a meeting of teachers headed by the school principal? Thank you. I need to include the correct word in the following sentence.
1) I really hope that the teachers' conference will approve/welcome/agree with/ the decision of a partnership betwenn our schools.
We are looking forward to hearing from you soon.
2)When the knocking on the door begins, she tells her husband to put on his nightwgown and pretend he was (?) sleeping.
3) She is not such a one-sided character, however, as (?) never to hesitate.
It's usually called a faculty meeting.
1) At today's faculty meeting, I really hope that the teachers will approve the partnership between our schools. We are looking forward to hearing from you soon.
2) When the knocking on the door begins, she tells her husband to put on his pajamas and pretend he is sleeping.
3) She is not such a one-sided character, however, that she never hesitates.
To call a meeting of teachers headed by the school principal, you can use the term "convene." This means to bring people together for a meeting or to assemble a group of individuals for a specific purpose.
So, in the given sentence, you can replace the word "approve/welcome/agree with" with "convene" to correctly convey the idea that you hope the teachers' conference will come together for a meeting to discuss and support the decision of a partnership between your schools.
Here's how the revised sentence would look:
1) I really hope that the teachers' conference will convene the decision of a partnership between our schools. We are looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Similarly, for the other two sentences:
2) When the knocking on the door begins, she tells her husband to put on his nightgown and pretend he was "asleep." The word "asleep" indicates that the husband should act like he is in a sleeping state.
3) She is not such a one-sided character, however, as "to never hesitate." The word "to" indicates that the character does not hesitate, even though it may be expected.
