Series Title: Website of the month
January 2013
This month we would like to highlight two websites:
- Newshound (Linguascope)
Linguascope has gathered together five fantastic feeds of current news headlines in French, German, Italian, Spanish and English from content provider Yahoo, and put them into a single application for iPhone and iPod Touch. Now you can find all the headlines and stories in a single place, which is ideal for practising your language skills on the move, or for looking at current affairs with pupils in the Senior Phase. More information on how to download the App is available from the Linguascope website. - Creative Chinese
Stimulating ideas for language and cultural activities for use with learners at all stages, this website will be particularly useful for classes preparing to celebrate Chinese New Year.
