■ PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Mastery of basic language skills is the overarching goal of the English inContext series. To this end, each of the six worktexts has been carefully designed to“begin at the beginning” and gradually proceed along the skills continuum. The lowreading level (approximately 4.0) is consistent throughout the program.

The worktexts are appropriate for use with small groups, a full class, or byindependent learners. The self-explanatory nature of the lessons frees the teacher forindividual mentoring. Students from middle school through adult classes will appreciatethe variety of contextual themes, which include humor, amazing facts, historicalhighlights, and excerpts from real-world documents and forms, as well as high-interestmaterial from academic content areas.

Both illustrations and graphic art are used to support the instruction and maintaininterest. A variety of puzzles, riddles, and games are intended to sharpen criticalthinking skills as they provide additional interest and amusement. A handy referenceguide at the back of each worktext promotes the invaluable habit of “looking up” averifying reference when usage is in doubt.

■ TEACHING THE PROGRAM

◆ Make sure that every student has a dictionary close at hand. Many lessons refer thestudent to a dictionary for the purpose of checking spelling, different forms of theword, synonyms, etc.

◆ Before passing out the worktexts for the first time, anticipate the negative attitudesof students who have experienced little success in previous English studies. Pointout that all lessons are short and that examples provided can be used as models.Ask students to read the worktext Introduction aloud, and then follow up with aclass discussion. Encourage students to expect success. For the first few lessons ina worktext, ask a student volunteer to read the directions aloud while you observethe other students, making certain that the instructions are understood.

◆ Lesson extensions for homework and/or extra credit might include locating examplesof “English in context” in newspaper or magazine clippings, or creative writingassignments such as making posters or charts, writing song lyrics or productdescriptions, or finding and recording examples of the focus skill from their basaltextbooks. Realia (actual business letters, operating instructions, classified ads,etc.) are extremely effective for demonstrating the relevance and everyday applicationof basic English skills.

◆ Challenge students to find errors in written materials from the “real world.” Offerbonus grade points for examples of missing commas, incorrect capitalization,grammar slip-ups, etc.

◆ Riffle through each student’s worktext on a regular basis, checking to see that allassigned lessons are completed. If you think it useful, conduct a short weekly “answer-checking” session with the entire group. Keep an eye out for students who aren’tmaking progress. Record unit review scores on the class record chart provided.

◆ Students who are unable to keep pace with their classmates need individual evaluation.Those having difficulty with the reading level could be assigned a peer tutor orperhaps work together in a small group to thoroughly preview and follow up onlessons that are causing them problems. Some ESL students need more oral languagepractice before transitioning into an entire lesson presentation in print. All studentsneed continuing encouragement from the teacher as well as his or her unflaggingexpectation of success.

◆ As students proceed through the worktexts, periodically reinforce selected skills andsubskills in one of the following ways:

(1) Choose an entry from the reference guide, write it on the board, and ask studentsto supply examples.

(2) Integrate basic English skills instruction in various content-area presentationsby asking questions about grammatical structure, interesting vocabulary, “rule-breaker” spellings, or any exemplary written formats.

(3) Reinforce the correlation between spoken and written language by eliciting oralresponses to the types of questions asked in the worktext lessons, e.g., “Cananyone name the part of speech for each word in the chapter title?”
