Title: Comment Jouer au Baseball
Body: A recent request on the FLTEACH listserv for a French-language resource explaining the game of baseball received the following replies: ---- I bought a little book called SPORTS which is part of the Hachette Encyclopoches series. It has explanations of all sorts of sports and gives all sorts of technical terms that would otherwise be hard to find. Kanics, J. Comment jouer au baseball! Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (14 Oct. 2005). ---- I picked up a little book called Exceller au Baseball (ISBN 2-7619-0948-8). It explains all the equipment, field, positions, and procedures in French. It was originally written by an American (Dick Walker), and the title page says "traduit de l'americain par Philippe Masao Arpin" which amuses my students who think it should be "traduit de l'anglais." Rauschenberg, J.M. Re: Comment jouer au baseball! Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (14 Oct. 2005). ---- Try also Les Capitales de Québec: http://capitalesdequebec.com/french . They play in the Canadian-American League. They might have a whole rule book. By the way, they DO play baseball in France. Here's the site: http://www.ffbsc.org/ffbsc/federation/index.asp . Graham, D. Re: Comment jouer au baseball! Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv.

Title: Favorite Spanish 1 Activities
Body: The following activity ideas for beginning learners of Spanish were recently posted to the FLTEACH listserv. The first two were responses to a request for ideas for practicing adjectives in class. They are not step-by-step lesson plans, but they may help get your creative juices flowing. ---- Create a funny and memorable story with the vocabulary. Have students illustrate their own story. Read, translate, have a partner translate, etc. Use index cards to have students create sentences with "es". Zichterman, E.A. Re: Spanish mini-lesson - adjectives. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (14 Oct. 2005). ---- A fun way is to use celebrities - the kids enjoy it a lot! Baxter, D. Re: Spanish mini-lesson - adjectives. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (14 Oct. 2005). ---- My favorite activities for Spanish I are: Create-an-alien: Students have to put together an alien, using all sorts of things (like paper, buttons, popsicle sticks, etc) and then give him a name. They then write a paragraph about him/her/it, telling me what he is like, what he likes to do, how many eyes (and other body parts) he has, etc. Fashion show: I divide the students into four groups (one for each season), and they have to put on a fashion show in class. They all have to model and they all have to talk about a model. OR, they can have an emcee introduce each model and then each model must talk about him/herself. Flaskrud, P. Re: Spanish 1.
