Title: Summer Institute: Living Latin in Rome
Body: From http://paideia-institute.org/living-latin-in-rome The Paideia Institute’s Living Latin in Rome June 11 - July 13, 2012 This intensive, five-week Latin language course has two purposes: providing a continuous period of study of Latin and introducing students to the most important ancient sites of Rome and its surrounding areas. The course meets five days a week for four hours a day (divided into two sessions) and combines traditional classroom instruction with the active use of Latin as a living language. In the morning session students meet in the classroom to read through a well-known passage from Latin literature connected with an ancient Roman site. The afternoon session uses the city as a classroom. Students visit the site referenced in the morning’s readings and work with the instructors in small groups, using Latin actively to interact with each other and the site they are visiting. Grammar, vocabulary and syntax seen in the morning’s reading are reinforced and practiced in a memorable and authentic setting. Each Saturday there is a trip to an ancient site outside of the city with associated readings. Sundays are free for relaxing and exploring Rome.

Title: Portland May Get Its First Public French Immersion School
Body: From http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2011/12/portland_may_get_its_first_pub.html Portland may get its first public French immersion school By Betsy Hammond December 13, 2011 After a lengthy public hearing and discussion Monday, the Portland school board is poised to decide Thursday whether to approve the metro area's first public French immersion school. Backers of the proposed Le Monde Public Charter School want to open a 400-student full immersion French language school in Southwest Portland next fall. They would start with kindergarten and first grade, and all teaching would be in French except a short daily English language lesson for the first-graders, organizers say. Seattle and Eugene have public schools that offer French immersion, but Portland, with a large and active Francophile community, does not, said Linda Witt, director of the nonprofit Alliance Francaise of Portland, which offers continuing education in French to local adults. Portland school district staffers who reviewed Le Monde's application and several additional rounds of revised budget and curriculum plans say its meets all state standards and should be allowed to open. School board members, who expressed several concerns Monday, will make the final decision during a Thursday evening meeting.

Body: From http://www.mctlc.org/News_blog?mode=PostView&bmi=771069 3rd annual Minnesota Cuba Film Festival St. Anthony Main Theatre Six Thursdays, February 23 - March 29, 2012 Cuban cinema is a big hit in Minneapolis-St. Paul.

The Minnesota Cuba Film Festival returns in 2012, this time co-curated with ICAIC, the national Cuban film institute, which is making available to us the best of current Cuban cinema. In addition, each full-length film will be accompanied by a short feature, ranging from hard-to-find vintage documentaries to student film theses from the international film school outside Havana. As in previous years, the films will be followed by a discussion at the adjoining Pracna on Main and a closing night party.

Body: From http://teacheld.com/2011/12/which-language-should-parents-of-english-language-learners-use-at-home Many teachers of English language learners often wonder if it would improve students’ proficiency in English if parents spoke to students exclusively in English at home.
