I am an American Peace Corps volunteer teaching 2 classes of students in Morocco. The first class is Kindergarden and I have about 30-35 students depending on attendance. This class takes place in a very small classroom. The second class is smaller- I had 10 today, but these are students who do not attend regular school. They are all at different levels and I'm beginning to suspect learning disabilities in 2 of them. Unfortunately I have no training because this is not my actual work here- just something I fell into doing.

My question is... Do you have any website suggestions for resources/ideas for beginning lessons? Any idea what direction I should (or more importantly, should not) take? I'm going the conversational route with the kids and I've learned the attention-span lesson already (and learned it well). I'm trying to teach the varied group how to read.

Thanks so much!
