I think it �s about keeping it practical and as useful as possible. I don �t mind foreign names, but when they use foreign letters and we cannot know the gender or how to pronounce them, it gets really annoying. Especially if there are twenty in one worksheet so I canot google them all. I agree we should broaden our students � horizons, but this sometimes gets in the way of something else we �re trying to do in that lesson. Keeping the printables editable is one solution, of course. I appreciate every worksheet someone has made and I don �t mind putting in a few minutes to adapt one to my needs.

I totally agree with Minka: broaden minds is very important (even if it �s done through foreign-international-new-... names), but the WS has to be editable, so that everyone can adjust it to his/her needs. Big hugs to all, Alessandra |
