David said: I would be more interested in hearing ideas about how to infuse the love of reading in our students, rather than know that they have really read a book ... just so that they can complete a book report. Will they be better English learners in our knowing that they actually plowed through the book? Any better than their writing an imaginative composition in English about an imaginary book? Here is my suggestion: Have them write about a Hebrew book that they enjoyed - writing about it in English will be a challenge and further their English acquisition. -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter.
