[Edu] May Academy pages are live

[Fred Poutre]

One of my favorite things to do with my students is give them compound
words that share roots and make them figure out the roots of the first
several and then have them tell me what the others mean.
Theses are some of the words I know I have used on them.

telephone
telegraph
telemetry
teleport
phonograph
chronometer
anachronism


Thanks

Ooopss... I'll get that edited today.

However, in my opinion, all teachers, no matter their subject, teach
English somewhat... as a Science teacher, I'd correct spelling,
punctuation, and grammar on lab reports all the time.  Drove me nuts.... 

But to actually teach English?  Not me... that takes a special breed of
patience that the universe didn't give me.

Thanks again though Ryan - it is a great lesson plan.

Wow, thanks for the wonderful write-up Carol!

One thing though. I don't teach English just Spanish. :D
