"Oral language-the ability to communicate needs, feelings and opinions via verbal speech-is the coin-of-the-realm in today's society. One must be able to interact verbally with others and an inability to do so, can greatly hamper a child's development and independence.
For most children, oral language develops quite naturally. As the child's vocabulary and syntax emerges, he becomes better able to communicate with others and gains control of his environment. A child's failure to develop normal verbal language can create great angst for his parents and caregivers.
When a parent has concerns about the child's language development, she often turns to family members or neighbors for 'expert' advice. The counsel that is provided generally ranges from unwarranted panic to laissez-faire advice that the child 'will grow out of it.' Neither of these reactions is particularly helpful or effective.
However, The Late Talker by Agin, Geng and Nicholl provides useful, field tested advice for parents who are concerned about their child's language development. This gem of a book provides an immensely readable overview of normal language development and a thorough review of the cause of language delays and disabilities. The material offers comfort and counsel for the anxious parents.
The great strength of The Late Talker is its transdisciplinary approach to the topic. Dr. Agin offers a thoughtful medical perspective on the problem and translates the related research into understandable and useful terms. Co-author Lisa Geng provides an invaluable parental perspective on the issue by discussing the emotional reactions of the family to the child with delayed speech.
The Late Talker provides an unparalleled overview of a problem faced by families throughout America . But beyond merely defining the problems, the book offers practical advice and strategies that the reader can put into action . . . today. This book belongs in every pediatrician's office and in the bookshelf of every early childhood center in the country."

Some states have a law whereby anyone can request and have access to the information in a teacher's personnel file except for things such as your social security number. Does anyone know if this is true in Oregon also?
In Oregon, is there a substitute teacher handbook? Are there any rules which proscribe the total number of hours that can be worked? How about the number of hours worked that would allow for benefits?

I recently responded to a post asking about alternatives in promoting summer reading with students K-8. I thought that those on this list might want to also be included in my reply. Please see below, and let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Tom

Greetings from Costa Rica. I would like to announce a course for teachers for this coming summer in Costa Rica.
Proyecto Campanario, the Institute for Central American Studies, and Lewis and Clark College have teamed up to offer an intense "Habitats and Culture of Costa Rica" course for academic or professional development credit for teachers. The hands-on course is an environmental overview of present day Costa Rica that emphasizes the natural history of its diverse landscapes as well as the language and customs of the people. Teachers will journey across Costa Rica’s extraordinary geography: from coral lagoon to once-glaciated peaks of volcanic rock, experiencing cloud forests, lowland rainforests, and mangrove swamps. This is a rather intense "field trip".
You may read more about the course on our web site and/or write to us for a complete course descriptions and registration form.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely, Nancy Aitken Director Proyecto Campanario

I'm a writer, and I'm presently revising my December release, which is about a teacher in Oregon who has quit her teaching position after teaching for two years in order to have corneal surgery and then go to grad school. I have two questions.
(1.) What sort of health insurance do teachers in Oregon have, and if they quit their jobs, are they able to get extended health coverage for a period of time, i.e., Cobra or an equivalent sort of coverage?
(2.) What is the usual beginning wage for a teacher in Oregon?
Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give me.
I can't help you out on the first question but here is a link to a salary schedule for the second largest school district in Oregon. Many district websites post the salary schedule. Check out the COSA website at [link removed]...
