Title: Piloting Spanish version of Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening
Body: The Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening (PALS) is an assessment tool designed to identify children at risk for developing reading difficulties. The PALS website is also a valuable resource for activities that address the foundational literacy skills that are essential for reading success. Activities are organized by skill (e.g., blending, letter sound knowledge, comprehension) and by grade level (PreK, K, and 1-3), and they can be downloaded free of charge. http://weta.convio.net/site/R?i=O9fD8CERn5fy_7pFcG-4dA.. Note: PALS is currently piloting Spanish versions of the Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening for Kindergarten and Grades 1-3. If you teach in a bilingual or dual-language school that might be interested in participating in this pilot, the PALs team would love to hear from you! Please send an e-mail to Colorín Colorado (http://www.colorincolorado.org/sitecontact ) and they will forward it to the researchers. http://weta.convio.net/site/R?i=-48CeQv1Ef--1AtUwleKrA.

Title: Many L.A. Students Not Moving out of English Language Classes
Body: From http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-english29-2009oct29,0,108049.story Many L.A. students not moving out of English language classes By Anna Gorman October 29, 2009 Nearly 30% of Los Angeles Unified School District students placed in English language learning classes in early primary grades were still in the program when they started high school, increasing their chances of dropping out, according to a new study released Wednesday. More than half of those students were born in the United States and three-quarters had been in the school district since first grade, according to the report by the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute at USC. The findings raise questions about the teaching in the district's English language classes, whether students are staying in the program too long and what more educators should do for students who start school unable to speak English fluently.

Body: From http://www2.tbo.com/content/2009/oct/25/na-usf-reaching-out-to-find-more-gifted-students USF reaching out to find more gifted students By MICHELLE FINLAYSON and REBECCA WAINRIGHT October 25, 2009 Chloe Gousse, who takes math and science classes in the gifted program at Hunter's Green Elementary, is not typical of her classmates because English is not her first language. Students who are not native English speakers and those from lower socio-economic groups generally are underrepresented in gifted programs, said Lauri Kirsch, the district's supervisor of K-12 gifted education in Hillsborough County. Recently, the University of South Florida's College of Education received a $1.6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education to fund REACH, which stands for Recognizing Extraordinary Accomplishments of Children, to research this issue.

Title: Book: Interlanguage Pragmatic Development
Body: From http://www.continuumbooks.com/books/detail.aspx?BookId=132161&SearchType=Basic Interlanguage Pragmatic Development: The Study Abroad Context by Gila Schauer Publisher: Continuum Summary: Schauer examines the interlanguage pragmatic development of German learners of English at a British University over the course of a year. The focus is not only on the learners’ productive pragmatic development, but also on their pragmatic awareness, which is compared with their grammatical awareness. The analysis undertaken is both qualitative and quantitative, and the book draws some important conclusions relevant to the whole field of interlanguage pragmatics. It will be engaging reading for researchers and postgraduate studies in applied linguistics, especially those working on interlanguage and cross-cultural pragmatics, multilingualism and second language acquisition.

Title: Book: Learners in Japanese Language Classrooms
Body: From http://www.continuumbooks.com/books/detail.aspx?BookId=133755&SearchType=Basic Learners in Japanese Language Classrooms: Overt and Covert Participation by Reiko Yoshida Publisher: Continuum Summary: The verbal participation of learners in language classrooms offers a rich seam of data to the applied linguist. Overt and covert participation, when examined, can reveal both the structures of a classroom and elicit privileged information on participant's self-perceptions. It examines the verbal participation of learners in Japanese as a Foreign Language classrooms. Verbal interactions with teachers and classmates and 'private' speech acts are examined in relation to the classroom context and also sociocultural factors such as the learner's motivation and the teacher's belief in their own methods. The examination of corrective feedback episodes and learners' private speech uses recorded speech and stimulated recall interviews recorded over the period of a year. The main focus is on Corrective Feedback episodes, and explains not only the language used in class but also teacher's and learner's own perceptions. It will be of interest to researchers in applied linguistics and second language acquisition, especially those involved with Japanese as a second or other language.
