ENGLISH TO SPANISH TRANSLATION (And more)http://www.freetranslation.com/

There is one translation site currently unblocked that will do free English to Spanish text translations for you.  You type in the English, it translates your text to Spanish.  You can copy and paste the translated text into any document.  This site does not have the adults-only viewing capability and so it is, hopefully, safe for you to use in your classroom.
