Poetry is a great resource for learning a second language because the cadence, rhyme, rhythm, and patterns of a language are often reflected in poetic offerings. Having children chant rhymes and songs in the target language provides opportunities for weaving sounds throughout the mouth, practicing words, playing with the rhymes, and becoming comfortable with the strangeness of the new language.
Here are a few suggestions to help students get started:
Practice listening to poems in the target l…

Why I Love These United States
Today is election day in the United States of America and I am a long time Obama supporter because I truly believe that he has the best interest of the country in his heart, mind, and soul. I see him as working to unite the country and living the dream that Martin Luther King Jr. had so many years ago…that so many of us have been struggling to achieve for so ma…

Immigration and economics 101
(Repost from Alisa Valdes Rodriguez)
(Hey, at least back then there were jobs to be had...)
Are you like me, neighbor? Are there some days where you wake up, read the news, and can't stop laughing at the absurdity of it all? Do you laugh because if you didn't, you'd cry? A $700 billion bailout of failing mortgage companies and investment banks. Wow. When a government buys all the houses and gives them to the people, that's...communism? But when the government bu…

No, I don't believe McCain(aka McSame) & I'm convinced that he is essentially stuck within his own rhetoric, as Palin. I Don't Trust Either of Them.
However, I thought you might enjoy this bit of Political Satire (albeit sarcasm included) that I'd also posted in a current blog. Enjoy!
I'd gotten this in an email & thought I'd pass this on for your reading & amusement....
