I have my students bring a running vocabulary of the words from the passage. Only the definition is in English. Nothing else.
They refer to it as they read.
To encourage them, I give pop quizzes where I ask them to define randomly chosen words while using their notes. Easy grade.

Many of the Cambridge people wrote Suburani, so it's presented in the same manner.
Agreed that some of the CLC stories were problematic. I just skipped those.

My district now uses Suburani. Itβs good, but not fun and ridiculous like Cambridge.

Study: Left-wing terrorism climbs to 30-year high
And posting a graph from Axios that shows WAY WAY WAY more right wing terrorism, and showing a very slight increase in left wing terrorism this year that would still have it lower than basically every other year of right wing terrorism.
White House Deputy Press Secretary seen here posting data showing how much more prevalent right wing domestic terrorism is than left wing domestic terrorism... while thinking she's showing the reverse.
Apparently she can only read headlines, but not the actual graph with the data.

El Paso once had a trolley system that ran from 1882 all the way into the early 1970s. It didnβt just move folks across townβit carried them across the border, too. For 70+ years, streetcars rattled between El Paso and JuΓ‘rez, the first trolley between two nations in history.
