I don't think you gave me enough info for your contact email- what goes after "webmaster@" ? Thanks!

LOL, I figured you'd send it to @teachers.net.
No matter - it looks like you're on AOL, and AOL blocked your email from Teachers.Net. It may be because our reverse DNS is not set up (we recently moved servers).
Email me at that address, and include the username you most recently tried to register under, and I'll forward the confirmation email that bounced from AOL. The confirmation only lasts for a few days, so you may need to try again.
If you prefer, you can just email me your preferred username and password, and I'll just manually enter the registration for you.
Also, I emailed AOL to complain, so they may have fixed that by now, so you may get it to work without my help. Let me know....
Hi! I teach in an ESL classroom. I was hoping my third graders could practice their English and get to know people from other countries and cultures. If anyone is interested in connecting, please let me know. Thanks!
Why don't any of the "sort by" choices include the board as it appeared in the past? I like reading all the posts on a particular thread in order.
I know that I can get there by clicking on a topic here and then clicking on the topics button at the top of the page. But, that's an extra click. And, I'm lazy. :)
I'll have an improved version of that feed style in an upcoming release. My goal is to get the board moved to mobile-friendly, and that involves a big improvement in how the data is stored and served, so a wide variety of feed options are possible.

You probably wouldn't want to know that will be going away, huh? :o) But the new feed will be much much better, when it's complete....

1. Friendly greeting ("Good morning," or "Good afternoon.")
2. Teach 3 feelings (For example, "I am happy." Because students have no English ability, I can't rely on words to teach. I must rely on facial expressions, gestures, modeling, etc.)
3. Drill the feelings/vocabulary
4. Fun game or activity (This game or activity is to practice the feelings you just taught.)
I am a creative writing major and linguistics minor, and have only tutored children who already have some English ability. I hate to ask for help for something so simple, but I'm not really sure what to do. If any of you have experience as ESL teachers, any lesson plans, suggestions, or anecdotes would be much appreciated.

Basically all foreigners have to teach English once they get there, and I am no exception. Thus, I am doing a Skype interview with a Japanese agency for a position as an Assistant Language Teacher. For that, I need to prepare a 3-5 demo lesson for the interviewer, who acts as if she is the class (2nd grade, about 30 children). I cannot use Japanese, and I cannot use reading or writing. This lesson must include: > > 1. Friendly greeting ("Good morning," or "Good afternoon.") > > 2. Teach 3 feelings (For example, "I am happy."

Hi! I was wondering if I could get any help or advice. I have a demo lesson for a second grade classroom for writing. I can do anything. I'm currently a fifth trade teacher. They preferably want to see writer's workshop! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It's been a long week or two of little walking. Besides the Women Build and babysitting, ("I am a nerd . . . 2 + 2 = 4; 4 + 4 = 8. etc," declared the 7 year old after watching "Hero 6." or "I loooooove hard boiled eggs," said the 5-year-old. I think she wants to be a vegetarian, and Grandma has to zip her lips again and again.) FIL fell off our front steps over the week-end, so DH has been spending a lot of time with him, including nights.
But, today: I did 7,309 + my yoga class. The weather's lousy, and I was backing out to go to the indoor walking track when--voila--no rain on the windshield. On with the North Face boots and puffy coat, and I came back inside feeling just like Judy. Brisk weather gets the blood racing.
I got my vote in today to keep the funds intact for our local school district. Since there was only the one thing to check on the ballot, we had to use a paper ballot. That felt strange after all these years of voting electronically. I am glad that I live in a community that supports its local schools beyond the meager monies from the state.
I am officially retired from my retail job as of yesterday. It's weird getting used to a new lifestyle. Too many directions and choices to be made. I am not in any hurry.
I'm a graduate student working on my teaching certification in Pennsylvania, and for one of our ongoing projects is that we are asked to consult with teachers and experts about an area of interest pertaining to assessment. For example, what are they doing in their own classrooms? Since I hope to be a foreign language teacher in the next few years, I thought I'd come here for some first hand information.
I know that these questions are a little vague, but if you have a moment to answer any of the following questions, I'd really appreciate your input. I'll be compiling some of the answers on a blog I write for school (which, at this time, only my professor follows), but I'm happy to leave your information out of the posting.
1. How are you creating authentic assessments?
2. Where do you see foreign language assessment heading?
3. What are some assessments that you think should be avoided in the foreign language classroom?
I don't think you gave me enough info for your contact email- what goes after "webmaster@" ? Thanks!
