It's been a long journey. A lot of feeling oneself through along the way, though driven by a search for directly usable, interesting (I hope), and varied materials (not as varied as I would have liked at the very lowest ends). The latest volume is an adaptation of portions of the Affective Skills Curriculum developed through the Northwest Regional Center, Seattle, WA. Our thanks to Terry Inzerello for allowing us to work with those materials. The sourcebooks can be downloaded for free at: http://www.crec.org/atdn/teacher_resources/lvalifeapp.shtml Also, the literacytent has recently posted several new basic literacy student interviews that were done in the mid 90s--though still timely. This summer we used some of the interviews in our advanced literacy group, which students enjoyed interacting with. Additional interviews will follow and the site hosts some in-depth tutor interviews as well. The literacytent, developed by Steve Lindberg, can be accessed at: http://literacytent.org/ The (a-hem) vacationing George Demetrion.
