Title: Article: Preserving Culture: Japanese-style Private School Thrives with U.S. Transplants
Body: From http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080717/METRO/807170418&imw=Y Preserving culture: Japanese-style private school thrives with U.S. transplants Shawn D. Lewis July 17, 2008 Parents from Canton to Ann Arbor and points in between drop their kids off at the Peach Tree Plaza on Meadowbrook Road, as parents do at traditional schools across Metro Detroit. What sets this school apart is the curriculum. Students read, write and solve math problems in Japanese. But even the school's $10,000 a year price tag hasn't slowed enrollment. Michigan's only year-round Japanese school, Koby International Academy, has a waiting list of 60 students. Nearly 95 percent of the school's families return to Japan within three to five years, and want their children to be able to keep up with their peers when they do. And parents say they like the 12 students per teacher ratio and intense individual attention.

Title: Internet Workbook for the Oxford Latin Course
Body: From http://artemis.austincollege.edu/acad/cml/rcape/index.html Internet Workbook for the Oxford Latin Course by Robert W. Cape, Jr. This workbook is designed to help students practice and review material associated with the Oxford Latin Course (OLC). The OLC emphasizes reading and oral question and answer as the primary ways of learning Latin, but it makes some use of formal grammar. While the thrust of this approach differs from the older grammar-based methods, students still need practice with declension and conjugation paradigms and rules of syntax. This workbook provides an easy way for students to practice the Latin forms and receive immediate feedback on their answers. The workbook may be used outside of class for extra practice, by homeschoolers using the OLC, or it may be used as part of a class in a computer lab environment.
