We read lots of interesting books, articles, and postings but don’t usually have the time to share them with others, so we thought we’d each make a recommendation about something new we’ve encountered. Nancy’s recommendation for this month is to spend time exploring Wikipedia for classroom use. For example, many of the entries include a Simple English version (scroll down through the available languages on the left side of the page.) These entries are composed using a controlled vocabulary of about 3000 words. However, while the language is simplified, the content is not. Great for English learners, younger students, and anyone who needs a bit more background knowledge about a topic!
