8 de abril de 2014

“For children, listening to a story is like opening a door to another world.” We all like listening to a good story! And we know that storytelling teaches children about the world and provides real-world social interaction. Through the storyteller´s words children internalize rhythms and tones and through observation they are able to learn how...Read More

Language Acquisition: The Bird is the Word

12 de março de 2014

by Stephen Greene

There is a cartoon that I love to watch called Family Guy (Uma Familia da Pesada). It isn’t to everyone’s taste because of the casual violence, bad language and somewhat offensive jokes.
