Learning units to bridge language learning with high school English courses
Learning units to bridge language learning with high school English courses
The following four English language development units from the San Diego County Office of Education were designed to help learners transition into a regular high school program from their language development classes. While not all the oral language development elements might be needed, the reading, writing and general communication activities are very useful. The modules follow a similar instructional routine and sequence, which appears on the first page of the preview document (a PDF). All relevant materials, including reading texts, can be accessed using the available links or have been included in the modules. The teacher resources below contain both the "student facing materials" and extensive teacher notes.
