Title: Translating 'To Be' When Referring to Location in Spanish
Body: Translating 'To Be' When Referring to Location 'Ser' Used for Events, 'Estar' for People and Things By Gerald Erichsen, About.com Although the Spanish verb estar typically is used to describe where a person or thing is located, when speaking of events ser must be used. Both verbs typically can be translated as "to be." But if the verb can also be translated as "to take place" or "to be held," ser must be used. Read the full explanation with examples at http://spanish.about.com/od/usingparticularverbs/qt/ser_events.htm?nl=1 .

Title: Article: New Massachusetts English Immersion Policy May Set Newcomers Back
Body: From http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2008/09/25/english_period English period: Some educators say pushing immersion before bilingual classes may do more harm than good By Lisa Kocian September 25, 2008 Do you remember the indecipherable teacher's voice from old Charlie Brown cartoons? That's what second grade sounds like to 7-year-old Marian Lora. In this country for all of a few weeks, she understands almost no English. But during her first 30 days of school in Framingham, that's all she will be hearing from teachers, under the requirements of a state law that seeks to minimize bilingual education in favor of immersing children quickly into the English language. That's one tough month for students and teachers alike, says Margaret Doyle, principal of the Brophy School, where Marian has just enrolled. During the month of English-only instruction, there are "many more trips to the bathroom, nurse's office. We've had kids crying, headaches, tummy aches," Doyle said.
