| Title | Resources for Students of German and French with Special Educational Needs |
| Body | The following was recently posted to the FLTEACH listserv suggesting good online resources for teachers of French and German, particularly those with students with special needss. ----- I have posted on my website at http://www.specialeducationalneeds.com/mfl/klasse.zip and http://www.specialeducationalneeds.com/mfl/year7french/weather/ units of work which I have word-processed for German and French respectively. I wrote them out of dissatisfaction with current textbook offerings, whose exercises have far too few questions to ensure the understanding of less able learners. The flashy, multicoloured layout of many contemporary commercial course manuals can also be distracting and confusing to those with learning disabilities. You might also be interested in my word processing guide for learners of German. It's at: http://www.specialeducationalneeds.com/accents/WordforGerman.doc Are you aware of the following lists of classroom phraseology? http://french.about.com/od/vocabulary/a/classroomphrase.htm http://german.about.com/od/vocabulary/a/schoolStd.htm http://german.about.com/od/vocabulary/a/schoolTch.htm You might find my Initial Teacher Training workshop for student teachers of modern foreign languages at http://www.specialeducationalneeds.com/case/ of interest. It focuses on Information Technology and Special Educational Needs. My impression is that many student teachers lack confidence when it comes to differentiating their delivery to accommodate different abilities and aptitudes. Now that educational inclusion is a matter of legislation, appropriate provision for the diverse needs of learners within heterogeneous classes has become a priority. Wilson, D.
