| Real Solutions for Families and Communities
http://www.realsolutions.org/ Children don’t live in vacuums, they live in families. Family
life can often affect a child’s life in positive or negative ways.
As teachers we have to work with the whole child, which can encompass the
family too. This site is a great site for educators and parents to
find resources and help on family issues, in efforts to help students and
families. This site has book recommendations on family issues, community
resources, news for families, professionals’ advise on topics that affect
the family, and services available from the Griffen and Wong Institute
(the sponsors of this site).

| N.A.B.E. (National Association of Bilingual Education)
http://www.nabe.org This is a great site to find resources for bilingual education and be
up to date on the latest issues concerning bilingual education in our nation.
It includes a menu on the U.S. legislations concerning bilingual education
as well as a menu on the recent news articles also associated with this.
Many educators my not feel terribly concerned with this issue but the articles
are a way to orient yourself with the subject if not aid you as a bilingual
educator. Personally, I feel this site could prove quite useful in
my future, (as I am a Spanish and Education major) not only keeping me
up to date on the latest legislation, but also keeping me in touch with
others who feel this subject is important.
