So many useful tips and suggestions stay in the classroom and never make it to other instructors who are teaching the same language, and sometimes even from the same text, who could benefit from them. Time and again, we feel the need to supplement our textbooks with our own activities to teach specific lessons. Our collective volume seeks to share $E3tried and true$E4 strategies and activities, both traditional and contemporary, for language teaching that have been road tested but perhaps never before published, much like a collaborative cookbook is a collection of best-loved recipes. We are seeking submissions from post-secondary Spanish and French instructors, including teaching assistants, of their favorite and most effective language teaching activities that are the teacher$E2s own creations. These activities could address lessons for teaching, but are by no means limited to: - verb tenses (present, past, future, subjunctive, etc.) - vocabulary (family, weather, appearance, etc.) - telling time - false cognates - giving directions - asking questions - comparative and superlative - adjectives - possessive adjectives - idiomatic expressions Our goal is to assemble a sort of patchwork of second/foreign language teaching strategies that include a variety of teaching methods, ranging from time-honored to more recently developed lessons and activities that will benefit language teachers. Therefore, we encourage and will accept submissions from a variety of instructional strategies. The best of each type of approach will be selected and included in our text. Please forward submissions no later than June 25, 2005 to: Spanish: French: Tina Ware Katharine Harrington Oklahoma Christian University University of Maine at Fort Kent [log in to unmask] [log in to unmask] 405.425.5336 207.834.7592 *********************************************** LLTI is a service of IALLT, the International Association for Language Learning, and The Consortium for Language Teaching and Learning (http://consortium.dartmouth.edu).
