Abstract | This book is an account of the development and implementation of the University of Massachusetts English Family Literacy Project, presented as a curriculum guide for others who may be involved in developing English-as-a-Second-Language and family literacy programs for immigrants and refugees. An introductory section describes the program, the process of writing the guide, and the intended audience and purpose of the guide, and offers questions and guidelines for group discussion of curriculum content and related issues. The guide is designed and recommended for use by a group rather than by individuals. Subsequent chapters address the following topics: (1) what constitutes family literacy; (2) the participatory approach to curriculum development; (3) determining program structure; (4) examining the process that occurs within the classroom; (5) involving students in the process of uncovering themes and issues as an integral part of classroom interaction (6) developing curriculum around themes using a variety of techniques, procedures, and activities; (7) using literacy to address real issues and make changes in the social context through collective effort; and (8) determining what counts as student progress. A list of over 130 resources is included. (MSE) (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse on Literacy Education) |
