Title: Noticigrama: News-based Crossword Puzzles
Body: From http://zachary-jones.com/spanish Noticigramas are a new activity type at Zachary Jones’s Actualidades blog. A Noticigrama prioritizes the week's 15 most important words (based primarily on frequency in Google Noticias) and present them in a fun context. It takes a short blurb from the news and makes a crossword clue out of it. The more students know about the news, the easier the the puzzle is to solve, but students can also use a “solve” button for each clue to automatically fill in the answer. See the first Noticigrama at http://zachary-jones.com/spanish/crosswords/noticigramas/2010-03-10.html The full collection of crosswords is available at http://zachary-jones.com/spanish/crossword-puzzles

Title: Lesson Plans for Less Commonly Taught Languages from the UCLA Language Materials Project
Body: The UCLA Language Materials Project (LMP) is proud to announce the completion of the lesson plan component of its stimulating new site for elementary and secondary foreign language teachers, the K-12 Gateway to the Less Commonly Taught Languages. The core of the Gateway is a complete set of downloadable lesson plans and supplementary materials for teaching a first year language course. Written in English, the plans can be adapted to any language and grade level. The lessons were created by Florence Martin of California State University Long Beach, who has taught languages at all levels from kindergarten through college, and speaks two Less Commonly Taught Languages. Over 100 lessons are grouped into 20 thematic units packed with stimulating activities for communicative learning. Beyond the lessons, there is a component on curriculum design, standards, and proficiency-based teaching. A resource section offers links to Language Resource Centers, teachers’ associations and forums, curriculum and assessment guides, journals, and professional development opportunities. The K-12 Gateway resides within the established Language Materials Project website. Gateway visitors are only a click away from the language profiles and authoritative bibliography of teaching materials for which the LMP has been known since 1992. The bibliography has been augmented with detailed citations of several hundred items for younger audiences. Visit the K-12 Gateway at www.lmp.ucla.edu/K-12
