---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: byk <byk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: cognates Away from HOTS and the modular bagrut! I am in the market for lists of cognates. (We apparently use this term incorrectly, but never mind.) I have quite a large list myself, but am looking to expand it, as I am trying to develop a program for one of my pupils in the third grade, who has memory retrieval problems. He is learning to read very efficiently, which is a great help to him, as it gives him something physical to help remember words, but for the time being, the more texts I can build up using cognates,the easier it is for him. Interestingly enough, playing card games with him, he is better than most at remembering all the phrases and sentences that go with the game, ie Do you have... Take a card, Your turn. Shuffle the pack, etc. Anybody with experience and information in this very problematic area of learning disabilities, is invited to share them with me. Anything I find successful I will also be delighted to share.
