Celebrate December 12 as American English Day!

On December 12, the State Department will officially launch American English, a website for overseas teachers and learners of English as a foreign language. This website is an extensive resource center not only for American English language teaching and learning, but also for American culture. It provides a variety of engaging materials and resources for teachers' professional development and for students in the classroom. 
December 12 also marks the official launch of Trace Effects, a 3-D immersion video game intended for young English language learners (see background here). A link to the game is included on the American English website. Ideas for Launch of American English (http://americanenglish.state.gov/):
