Sounds About Right
Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 2005
"Reading the dictionary" sounds like a punishment
to most people, or an activity undertaken only by the hopelessly bored or
academically inclined. It is, however, an activity that word lovers indulge in
unashamedly from time to time.

Calling All Teachers
Arlene Blum, teacher at the American School for the Deaf says:
"We have a laptop program where our kids use them for the writing program. When they see a word on the Visual Thesaurus and click on it, they get excited about it and see the subtleties of language. It's opened a lot of avenues for us. We would love more ideas on how to use the Visual Thesaurus with our kids and how to teach them more language. Our goal here is to teach them more vocabulary so they're competitive with their hearing peers."
Teachers out there, any suggestions for Arlene? Do you have any lesson plans with the VT that you'd like to share with her and other teachers?
