Question:
Hi, I’m a 6th grade Literature teacher at a new school. The school has old 2001 Prentice Hall Copper Level Texas Editions. I have the Teacher’s Edition but not any of the other resource materials. I am trying to find the “Celebrating Texas Literature” Unit Test online without any luck. Does anyone know where online I can find this test or have this test they can email to me? Please let me know ASAP! Thanks!

Question:
She is the most wonderful person, a teacher, new auntie, and best friend. Her name is April. I live 500 miles away from her and need all the support I can get. I have a new baby and can’t get out much for support groups. She was moved from home hospice to a care facility today and is fading slowly but surely. I miss her already and can barely deal being this far away.
Please help suggest anything you think might help me and my family get through this time. I feel like I am caught between heaven and hell.
Also, if you have a younger (or older) sister–you might want to give her an extra big hug tonight.
Question:
I’m mid-way through “teaching” American culture to a homestay group, and I’m looking for suggestions/links to resources that could pep up the class. To make a long story short, when hired I was told a) that the curriculum would be set for me and I’d just have to follow and b) they’d be fluent in English. Both turned out to be false, and this is turning out to be my most frustrating experience in 6 yrs. of classroom instruction (I would just teach English, but there’s another instructor for that). And I’m sure, from the perspective of my students, that this could be a more enjoyable experience.
The last 5 days of class can have anything to do with these overarching topics: Race Relations in the US, San Francisco, Food, Sports, and a basic “what not to leave the U.S. without knowing.”
They’re high school/junior high with intermediate to beginning English skills.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Question:
What is a good textbook for the AP World History exam? I was thinking of getting World Civilizations: The Global Experience, but I am not — there are so many different editions, some only one volume, some two.
Also, what are some good supplementary readers, books, teachers’ resources, and so on?
Thank you for your help!
Question:
My son is 2 and I have heard it is easier for children to learn a second language when they are young. I myself only speak English but I would really like for him to learn Latin. That being said can you suggest helpful resources for teaching him Latin and/or suggest fun ways for him to learn a second language.

This is a question that my Science teacher stumped me with. So any insight or opinion helps.
Question:
I have been teaching English at a cram school in Asia for a year and am now going to Latin America to work in a poor village. The materials I now use are good but copyrighted by the school, so I can’t take them. I am also used to having a library of resources. Now, I won’t have a photocopier and probably won’t be able to bring in a lot of resources, (definitely not one per student) so I am looking for good books and materials out of which I can get plenty of mileage.

Question:
I am currently working on speech and language skills with 7 year old hearing impaired children. I was wondering if anyone knows the best free teacher resource (printable) websites that I can go to and look for new games, flashcards, etc. I am in desperate need of some new ideas, as the children are becoming a little bored with our therapy sessions. Thank you to anyone that can help me out!!!
