Title: More Ideas for Lessons on Directions and Locations
Body: Here are two more ideas for applied practice of directions and locations. These activities involve oral practice in pairs or in groups using paper maps or “living” maps created with objects in the classroom. ---- I did this today in my Russian class. It helps students get the distinction between unidirectional verbs and multidirectional/round trip verbs. I give them a city with various buildings and streets already labeled. They get in small groups and decide what course the "detective" will take through the city looking for his man. They give only the starting point, and from there, just directions. The other teams have to figure out from those directions, read aloud, where the detective ends up. Barrett, P. Re: Asking/Giving Directions Activities. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (25 Apr. 2005). ---- In 8th grade, we used various objects brought in by the students and made a "living map" on the classroom floor. (Boxes, plastic traffic cones, posters, etc.) The kids had to break into pairs and give each other directions to a specific location, like the library, etc. I have also had them lead each other through the school, but you have to have a really well-behaved, focused group to do it!! (and an understanding principal!) Pickles, J. Re: Asking/Giving Directions Activities. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (19 Apr. 2005).

Title: Book Review: Dialogue With Bakhtin on Second and Foreign Language Learning
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/17/17-1413.html EDITORS: Hall, Joan Kelly; Vitanova, Gergana; Marchenkova, Ludmila A. TITLE: Dialogue With Bakhtin on Second and Foreign Language Learning SUBTITLE: New Perspectives PUBLISHER: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates YEAR: 2005 Carmen Pinilla-Padilla, PhD, is an English as a Foreign Language teacher and teacher educator and currently director of the Centro de Formación, Innovación y Recursos Educativos, Torrent-Spain. DESCRIPTION OF PURPOSE AND CONTENTS The purpose of this edited collection of papers by different authors is to explore links between the Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas and second or foreign language learning. While Bakhtin has traditionally been seen as a literary critic, chapters in this book collect the ideas of scholars that see how Bakhtinian genres and rhetorical theory can be relevant and applied to second and foreign language education. The book addresses a variety of formal and informal educational contexts including elementary and university-level second or foreign language classrooms. Read the complete review at http://linguistlist.org/issues/17/17-1413.html . For more information on the book, visit https://www.erlbaum.com/shop/tek9.asp?pg=products&specific=0-8058-5021-X .
