Courtney, did you happen to scroll down the page and read on? There are very simple approaches to BBL that any teacher could begin using right away. I really like the idea of "relaxed alertness" and "active processing."

This is a great resource to allow students to work at their own pace. It reinforces quick recall of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems. It is great for both elementary and middle school students.

El Pais is a Spanish newspaper, which writes articles on everything from politics and world news to sports. It's great for pictures, too. It's great for reading, building vocab, and introducing more in depth cultural topics. I use it for my Spanish 3 class.

This website is a great resource for Spanish teachers of all grade levels. There are lesson plans, games, activities, and helpful insight on how to incorporate literature and culture into the World Language classroom. I have also found the resources targeted for new teachers very helpful. There are also resources and posts for veteran teachers. I appreciate that this site also provides teachers with motivation and encouragement.
