Hi Steve,
Are you using Sugar? If so, Speak is great. Fototoon is also very good if you
have the students collaborate on writing stories. Without computers, I would
suggest having the students write and illustrate their own little stories, make
up little plays to put on for one another, describe to the class how to do or
make something, conduct pretend phone conversations, pretend to go shopping,
etc., and one of the most enjoyable things... have them sing lots of fun songs
in English. They can have the words written some where to practice reading them
and can talk about what they mean. They can make simple instruments to play
along too... a few pebbles in a soda can, sticks to hit together, a plastic
bucket as a drum... you get the idea.
Have fun!Caryl

Subject: [IAEP] Suggestions needed for Learning(Teaching) reading
I will be heading to Haiti next month and the teachers are requesting feedback
and ideas on teaching English at the school I will be visiting.
I am looking for good resources on methods of teaching/lessons, software
suggestions and non computer games and methods of learning.
I have ordered Proust and the Squid and am looking at Maryanne Wolf video's
suggested by Mike Lee.
Thanks,Stephen
