Title: New Program in Arizona Will Certify Indigenous Language Experts as Teachers
Body: From http://www.navajotimes.com/education/2012/0912/090612cer.php New program will certify language experts as teachers By Cindy Yurth September 6, 2012 The Arizona State Board of Education last week approved a policy to allow tribes to certify speakers of their own languages to teach in public and BIE-funded schools.

Tah. "We have lots of elders around who have a lot of knowledge," Tah said. "They could be an asset to the schools."

Body: From http://www.primarysource.org/teacher-created-curriculum Long an immigrant city, Lowell, Massachusetts, is well known as the home of one of the largest Cambodian populations in the United States.

Title: Japanese Expressions Used in Letters
Body: From http://japanese.about.com The difference between written language and conversational language in Japanese is much greater than in English. Japanese letters often use classical grammar patterns which are seldom used in conversation. Although there are no particular rules when writing to close friends, there are many set expressions and honorific expressions (keigo) used in formal letters. A conversational style is not usually used when writing formal letters. See a list of expressions and their explanations at http://japanese.about.com/od/grammarlessons/a/101401.htm?nl=1

Title: Brooklyn Latin School Uses Classic Methods and Principles To Prepare Students for the Modern World
Body: From http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/education/brooklyn-latin-school-classic-methods-principles-prepare-students-modern-world-article-1.1154736 Brooklyn Latin School uses classic methods and principles to prepare students for the modern world Principal Jason Griffiths tapped to model the Bushwick magnet school after Boston Latin, America's oldest institution and alma mater of John Adams and John Hancock By Michael Menna September 9, 2012 At the Brooklyn Latin School, the old and the new make a good team. Born out of Mayor Bloomberg’s 2005 announcement to create seven select public schools, the Bushwick magnet school has sought to use old-school methods and principles to better prepare its students for a modern world. Though some skeptics doubted whether the top floors of Bushwick’s PS 147 could provide a suitable site for a school like Brooklyn Latin — concerned that New York families might view its premium on Old World virtues as dated and out-of-touch — a quick glance at teacher-student discussions shows enthusiasm is never a problem there.
