Book excerpt: This remarkable resource gives ESL teachers working with the four million Limited English Proficient (LEP) students in our public schools 178 tested lessons and over 200 illustrated activity sheets to help students develop the knowledge, vocabulary, and practical skills they need to succeed in school and in life. For easy use, the lessons and activities are organized into two parts. Part I, Personal Life Skills, focuses on the life skills necessary to succeed and function in the everyday world of American society. Part II, School and Academic Skills, provides information about life in American schools and basic academic content including an extensive "Introduction to Literacy". Each lesson is complete and ready-to-use, including objective, new vocabulary, materials needed, teaching note, step-by-step directions, extensions, and one or more reproducible activity sheets. The activity sheets can be used independently ("Dialing the Operator") or as part of a larger unit ("Personal Communication").
