The "Silent Period" in Language Acquisition: Truth or Myth?

http://analomba.staging.wpengine.com/anas-blog/the-silent-period-in-language-acquisition-truth-or-myth

The Most Enchanting Way to Teach Languages. How We Are Different. How Our Products Work. The “Silent Period” in Language Acquisition: Truth or Myth? The “Silent Period” in Language Acquisition: Truth or Myth? June 22, 2012. During the years, I have become more and more suspicious of natural approaches to second language education.

The Dream Teacher: Teacher Love

http://thedreamteacher.blogspot.com/2012/05/teacher-love.html

Thursday, May 31, 2012. It was really hard to imagine. But soon my son was born, and what a sleepy baby! I don't think he opened his eyes until the third day in the hospital. I was holding him on that day when the phone in my hospital room rang. My husband, on the other end of the line, asked, "What are you doing? Of them, and still do, just the same. Or The kids you'll get next year are so sweet. The answer is How, When, Where, and To What Extent) with "How, When, Where, and What's the Matter? In every ...

A brand new line. A House of Cards. Alternatively Titled: How Blogging got me a Job. June 21, 2011. This post is a little late coming or maybe too early. I have a pretty solid fear that if I breathe wrong this whole thing will fall apart. But I have been told several times how I am to write about how I got this job and maybe some new student teacher will read this and start blogging and that would be great. So here goes, just about everything. My contract is in the mail so I think I will be okay). The fi...

http://commit2lit.blogspot.com/2012/02/reckless-abandon.html

Tales From The Clink. Monday, February 6, 2012. I often think about writing. More often, and lately, I think about not. Writing. I am not writing. Sure, I write lesson plans (tons), and behavior reports (half tons), and scads of assignments related to my practicum and CAGS program and other professional development endeavors, but let's call a spade a spade. This isn't writing. I feel like I've ditched my kid. We do it before school, giving extra help to students; after school, when we are contracted to t...
