Answer to Question 1

Take the new child around and personally introduce him or her to other children. Give the new child special class responsibilities so he or she feels a part of the class. Be a role model for cultural acceptance and respect. Provide contextualized, authentic learning. Let the new child silently observe if he or she feels uncomfortable participating at first. Partner the new child with a compatible learning mate. Never pressure a new child to speak; when he or she does speak, don't overcorrect. Learn some words and phrases in the child's native language; use these with the new child as well as teach them to the other children. Simplify your English as needed and speak slowly in a clear, normal tone. Repetitive stories, songs, and rhymes allow the new child to practice language. Role-playing invites the new child to explore lifelike situations so he or she can have fun practicing the language structures needed for conversation.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
