About This Book
Teaching English as a Second Language, in far too many American schools, thrusts, especially new teachers to the craft, into a learning environment where there are many expected learning outcomes and few real classroom tools to achieve them. This ESL-Mainstream Linking Curriculum Guide addresses that situation and provides solutions. It incorporates a basic set of mainstream, subject topics, into a format for the teacher to expedite, and it provides for second language learners to develop Englis

Philosophy
ESL Philosophy
Learning a language can and should be a source of satisfaction and achievement. An English as a Second Language Program seeks to provide an academic environment in which language skills are developed through listening, speaking, reading, and writing activities. The program affords students the opportunity to acquire and refine language proficiency, eventuating in mainstream enrollment, in order to meet standard graduation requirements. The ESL program should create a learning atmosphere where language development is as student-friendly and exciting as it is challenging.

Linking Curriculum, Essential Elements
The Essential Elements of Study are course-specific topics and disciplines reflective of each mainstream subjectâs scope and sequence. They serve to provide a link between mainstream and ESL curriculums. They make the ESL teacher aware of what his/her mainstream-teacher counterpart is or could be covering. They provide that window of opportunity for the ESL teacher to parallel-teach with a mainstream counterpart and develop material that will enhance the ESL studentâs ability to succeed, once exited from the ESL course of study.
Essential Elements are not set in stone. They have to be refined, added to, and/or deleted as the curriculum, teachersâ, and studentsâ needs change. Revising Essential Elements, as in the case of curriculum revision, is an ongoing process, which can serve to integrate Essential Elements, common to both ESL and mainstream curriculum needs.
The Essential Elements included in this work reflect those topics common to a variety of curriculum courses of study.
