[LM_NET] HIT: AP Spanish sources

[Rita Sitron <rsitron@YAHOO.COM>]

Thank you so much to everyone who responded to my plea for AP Spanish sources.  My 
teachers will definitely appreciate it.

  I don't know what databases you have, but we have Encylopedia 
Britannica
online and it has a Spanish version. If you don't have that, your own
encyclopedia may have a Spanish version. Also, we use United Streaming 
video
and it has a lot of Hispanic culture videos that our Spanish teacher 
uses.
Our local big-city paper produces a weekly Spanish version of the 
newspaper
that we get once a week through Newspapers in Education. She's also had 
them
read to younger ESL students to help with their reading skills or 
create a
storybook for young ESL readers. She also had them create a Powerpoint 
or
brochure on a Spanish-speaking country with each student doing a 
different
country.
There's a great Spanish language blog which includes podcasts at

I also like the BBC languages sites.  They have links to all sorts of 
language resources:

And here's a list of Spanish language newspapers from different 
countries:

  Maybe worldnadi.com
  This is a paid site but not very expensive. I think you and look at for free. 
They do have some Spanish stuff there. Good luck

  Informe, one of the Thompson-Gale databases, has articles in Spanish. Almost all 
the major online encyclopedias have a Spanish version
