The lessons included in this collection were written by California Polytechnic State University Reading Specialist Credential candidates in the Salinas Cohort Project of 1992 as partial fulfillment for an education course titled "Bilingual Special Education Reading Problems." Each lesson is research-based. A rationale describes the reading instructional strategy of the lesson and tells briefly which reading skills are intended through the activity. The lesson plan is a step-by-step guide for presenting the instruction. Essential materials are included and activities are replicable. Suggestions for adapting the lesson for limited-English-proficient students follow the lesson plan. Adaptations are included for a variety of grade levels and second language acquisition situations. Resources are cited to further extend the learning activity. This section may refer to the reading strategy or to adaptations for limited-English-proficient students. The document provides interest inventories, lesson plans for choral reading, wordless picture books, word banks, poetry for teaching sight words, listening, and creative dramatics, and a lesson evaluation form.
