Editorial she suggests ways of implementing a more inclusive
teaching style in order to cater for students with
differing learning preferences.
Editorial
A nyone detecting a slightly cheesy smell to this
issue will not be surprised to learn that three
of our contributors have managed to work
that most fragrant of foodstuffs into their articles! I
advise serious turophiles to turn straight to the
Scrapbook in order to feast on Ian Waring Green’s
account of amorous goats, cheese-fuelled trafic
hazards, de Gaulle’s doubts about whether one can
govern a country possessed of 246 varieties of cheese
– plus the delights of cheeses full of writhing maggots.
For a more linguistic angle on the subject, look no
further than page 40, where John Potts employs the
same de Gaulle quotation to discuss the question of
whether or not cheese(s) can be counted. Alan Marsh’s
deinition of a delicatessen ( a place where you buy
cheeses ...) adds further ammunition to the debate.
For David Heathield, sharing stories from other
languages and across cultures is the key to an all-
inclusive classroom. The website he recommends is an
excellent source of stories from all around the world.
Anita Rao Mysore and Felicia Lincoln train teachers
who will work in contexts where a speciic type of
English language learner is placed in school classes
alongside more mainstream students. They put forward
ways to make lessons more welcoming and inclusive
for these students as they are faced with the challenge
of keeping up with the others.
As well as warning of the dificulties of government,
the French president’s words can be interpreted as a
celebration of diversity – and this is something else
which is well represented in this issue. In our main
feature, Marjorie Rosenberg celebrates the diversity of
learning styles to be found within a single class, and
