Subject: Re: [CASL-L] Resources for Spanish speaking studentsHi Jenny,The Spanish teacher at our elementary school recommended A-Z Reading (or Raz-Kids). She uses it with her native speakers. It is a paid subscription, but your district might have it. Tumble Books might be another resource available through your public library, too.I love the camera idea Kate suggested. Good luck! :)TenleyOn Thu, Sep 27, 2018 at 11:29 AM Katie McCollom <kmccollom@woodbridgeps.org> wrote:This may not be relevant, but when I had primary students who came straight from China without any English, I gave them a camera.

Subject: [CASL-L] Looking for fancy aisle sign vendors
Hi librarians!
We recently renovated our library space and are looking to purchase some frame signage for our aisles.
Can anyone recommend any vendors besides Demco or The Library Store?
Company just needs to accept purchase orders.
Thanks!
