Developed to facilitate the teaching/learning process, this guide corresponds to the Adult Basic Education (ABE) Reading Skills Workbook Level I, and may be used as an answer book, as well as a reference manual. It contains concise explanations of the various skills presented, suggested teaching strategies, answers to workbook exercises, and a list of available commercial materials (with specific pages cited) that may be used to supplement the materials. The guide covers three units: word analysis (consonants, vowels and dipthongs, prefixes and suffixes, and alphabetizing); vocabulary (sight word vocabulary and compound words); and comprehension (following directions, sequencing in narration, finding the main idea, and drawing conclusions). Unit post-tests are also given, as well as a preface to the teachers and a brief summary of what is to be found in the reading and writing workbooks, and how they are organized. (JMM)
