at my school, spanish class is offered to all students. many times there are kids who use spanish as their first language in these classes. i could understand if they took a higher level class, like the "american" students take an english class, but we learn about simple verbs and conjugating, stuff these people should know by the age of 5. any thoughts?

I need to make a speech on why wal*mart is evil...but i cant seem to make a speech out of my ideas...i would appreciate some input, and/or any other good reasons for the evilness of walmart,
here are some of my ideas

ok....you have this huge spacious store, yet the isles are tiny which causes "cart-rage", and there is just random space where it is not really needed, and even though you have like 20 checkout lines, only 3 are actually in use, and you feel drained when you leave the store, little demon children wander the isles hitting you with their mothers carts...............

A friend of mine is really having some trouble. She gets the “p” and the “b” mixed up and the “q” and the “g”. She says they look the same? If she is spelling frequent she spells it perfect. Just with a "g". If she is spelling ability she puts a “P” instead of a “b”. It’s really hard to read her writing. And she says she can’t tell the difference. What should I do? I am trying to tutor her, but I often can’t read her writing.
