CONGRATULATIONS to Larry Ferlazzo, a contributor to our list (see his message from April below), who won the 2007 International Reading Association's Presidential Award for Reading and Technology for his work to create social online spaces for immigrant families. Thank you, Larry, for your work and also for raising the visibility of the need and potential among our family literacy populations with this prestigious award!
Here's the link to the award announcement: http://www.reading.org/association/awards/teachers_presidential.html

But there was a very nice article in the Reading Today newspaper that arrived at my home yesterday.

Congratulations on the recognition of your fine work!

I thought people might find this website useful for teaching English
Language Learners and younger native English speakers. I've recently expanded it:

_http://www.bayworld.net/ferlazzo/english.html_
(http://www.bayworld.net/ferlazzo/english.html)

It now has over 6,000 links appropriate for English Language Learners
divided into many categories, and covering English, Math, Science and Social
Studies.

I also have a blog that highlights new content that's added to the site:
