New Beginnings: Creating and Establishing an Adult Literacy Program
Normand, Amy J., Executive Editor (June 2002).
San Marcos, TX: Volunteers in Training for Adult Literacy.
This compact guide was created to assist literacy groups, school districts,
community-based, and faith-based organizations in the process of beginning
an adult literacy program in their community. It is designed for groups who
have never experienced the process of starting a nonprofit organization and
have little or no background knowledge of adult literacy, adult basic or
secondary education, English as a Second Language, or GED Preparation.
Chapters were written by Texas adult education practitioners and include:
Program Planning (Amy Normand); Fund Development (Connie Munn); Volunteer
Recruitment and Retention (Jean Villa); Tutor Training (Robert Pinhero);
Student Recruitment, Orientation, and Retention (Janell Baker); Literacy and
Adult Basic Education (Cletis Tatum); English as a Second Language (UT-San
Antonio ESL Professional Development Center Staff); and Adult Secondary
Education and GED (Jeanni Pruitt).
Spiral-Bound Book (61 pages)

Greetings--
Today I posted a reading and discussion activity
on the Hands-on English website about the space shuttle disaster. This was
sent to us by Jill Kramer, an ESL teacher in Columbus, Ohio. It's an
intermediate level activity is called "The Columbia Tragedy". You can see
this at: http://www.handsonenglish.com/currentevents.html
Please feel free to copy this, if you want to,
and use it with your students. I hope you'll find the activity useful, and I
look forward to hearing from you if you have feedback or other teaching
ideas to share.
Best wishes,
Anna
