Title: Advice for Teachers of Students with ADD
Body: I have ADD, so I understand the student who has attention deficit, and it's not fun. Usually these kids are very bright and it's not always their fault when disrupting. Having them get up often and move around helps. Salsedo, P. Re: Teaching ADD students in the FL classroom. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (20 Sept. 2005). ---- I teach French at a private boarding school that specializes in children with ADD/ADHD. The less excess talking in the classroom, the better. The students will pick up on things better with more repetition, I've found. For example, every day I come into the class, take attendance, and ask ,"Quelle est la date aujourd'hui?", or What is the date today? The students know what to expect, and they know that I will review the numbers, days of the week, year, and month with them daily. My class sizes are smaller, as the school only has 35 students, but even when I have a class of around 15 or so, if I try to make it as interactive as possible, they really respond. With testing, some of them have trouble with just the basic memorization of vocabulary, so I try to vary the tests and balance the oral and written portions. I also assign 5 minutes of oral practice a night, so that they will continue to speak to each other to reinforce the day's lesson. Also, during class, I try to write as much on the board as possible, so they get the key points down, as some of them have trouble pinpointing what to take notes on. McGlynn, S.

Title: Immigrant Parents' Mixed Reactions to Sex Ed Classes
Body: Children of immigrants often feel caught between their native and adopted cultures. One of the more sensitive issues for foreign-born parents with children in U.S. public schools is whether or not to keep children in sex education classes. While some parents agree that sticking to the standard curriculum will better prepare their kids for life in the U.S., others prefer to keep their children out of these classes and educate them according to their own beliefs.

There are wonderful trabalenguas available on the Internet. My favorite (from pre-Internet days) is Paco Peco, chico rico, insultaba como un loco a su tío Federico.
