Well it is not a modern satire but it is relevant to the continuing issue of poverty worldwide.  Check out "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift.  He also wrote Gulliver's Travels.\n\nA Modest Proposal states that the English hierarchy should eat Irish babies and children since they have taken everything else away anyhow.  Might be relevant with the issues in Africa, TIbet, India, etc.\n\nYou might also check out some of George Carlin's writings.  True you need to be careful as he can be crass and you don't want to go there for an English class, but some of his other works really hits home on Modern Issues.  He has many books that you could probably get at the local library.\n\nAl Franken is also another writer of interests on modern issues, I don't know if he uses satire but he did write a book called "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right"\n\nI Hope This Helps,\nAmy

Ask your teacher. If you can get it back, you may use the paragraph provided you put it in quotes and give the source.\n\ns

For exercises, I would try Harvey's Revised English Grammar - it's on old grammar book they used to use, like in the one-room schoolhouses.  I bought it for homeschooling my kids, and the exercises are wonderful.  For a reference text, I would try Elements of Style by Strunk & White.  You should be able to find it at amazon, but it's also available in full text online.

Other than Spanish class, or maybe a supplemental to Spanish class, would be a Spanish/English dictionary. I had that and a book on conjugating verbs (I took a Spanish class in high school, but unfortuneately my Spanish still sucks).

If you want your students to start reading English FROM the first class (review your prepositions, there, teacher!), you need to surround them with English print.\n\nYou can start them with "echo" reading, where you all share the same text, you read a sentence out loud to them, they say it back to you....\n\nHave magazines with lots of pictures on hand, and have them search for articles using that day's vocabulary words.\n\nFind a translation into English of a well-known children's story from the students' country/culture. Read it aloud in English to them, using the pictures and already known vocabulary for them to recall the overall meaning of each step in the story.\n\nAnd so on.\n\nGood luck!
