Title: Activity Idea for Location/Commands
Body: An FLTEACH user described the following activity: Told students to get in pairs. Sent half of each pair into the hallway. Called on one of the students remaining, holding up a piece of candy, and had the student watch the teacher hide it somewhere in the room. Hid another one for each student. Called the others back in and had them one at a time use the target language to help their partner find the prize. Groleau, W. Language activity. Foreign Language Teaching Forum (FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU, 2 Mar 2007).

Title: Lang-Learn: Blog for Language Teachers
Body: From http://lang-learn.us/index.php?itemid=11 In 2006 on the FLTEACH mailing list, some situations came up that prompted the creation of “Language & Learning”-the need for a medium of expression just a little bit different from a mailing list, and the need for an organized way for language teachers to pass on items that other language teachers need. “Ideas & Opinions,” provides space for Language & Learning members to discuss things in a little different style than a mailing list or Usenet. “Foreign Language EXchange” is in the planning stages.
