Once your child learns how to read, it is still important to read aloud to him or her. It will help foster a love for reading and more importantly, increase their vocabulary, an important prerequisite to being able to read independently. Jim Trelease's website was one of ALA's award winning sites in 2003. There's a wealth of information here, including "TV, DVD, computers, & school scores", "No Dentist Left Behind", and something that is mind boggling, Meaningful Differences (32 million word difference). Also at this website is information about NCLB, censorship, and books on tape. Jim has retired from public speaking now, to spend time with his family, but his website still has excellent information. Thanks Jim for all your efforts through the years. |

I have included a few websites to help you learn to speak Spanish. Sorry, the "Stories from Alaska Students" link has changed, so I will have to re-do that page. The other links should work fine, though. Did you know that Community Ed offers Spanish classes? Stop by their office at Northrop to learn more and to find out when the next class starts. La profesora es muy inteligente y la clase es interesante y agradable. |
