Adult literacy books for people that never learned how to write in their L1s
I am teaching a beginners ESOL + adult literacy class ~
Preparing classes for these two types of students is hard. When you teach, say, Bengali, Arabic or Chinese students to write "the strokes" for English letters (which to them is an issue) in a class where other students ask you "why do we have to learn that?" ;-) is not easy ~
Any good books, links, etc on the subject? ... and with "good" books that would help you come up with lesson plans not books about "options" and philosophy of teaching/learning
~
Thanks
