I got to participate in Bilingual story-time with Sylvia, who is from Argentina. Our theme was back to school and we found some fun stories about first day of school jitters, etc etc. I would read a page in English and Sylvia would read it in Spainish. It was great.
We even did one story in sign language as well. Well, words in ASL - not whole sentences. This was the dialog in the book - Page one: "Wow! School!" Page Two: "Wow! Teacher!" You get the idea! (hehe)
The books we used:
Wow! School!
by Robert Neubecker
First day jitters
by Julie Danneberg ; illustrated by Judy Love.
Splat the cat

Aw, you make me miss Sylvia! I used to work as an Aide in Children's, and was there for about 4 years! (before moving to Circ for a short time and then a mission) Anyway, I don't actually know you, but I do know Carrie Luker, who had your blog listed in her sidebar. Aaaand, since I am a closet librarian... I had to check it out. Good luck finding another job!
