ABSTRACT
The 15 guides included in this training packet were
compiled from data gathered during a 3-year study of
content-English-as-a-Second-Language (content-ESL) programs across
the United States. These 15 guides are intended as stepping stones
and idea-generators and include information on curriculum
development, material selection and adaptation, and lesson planning.
Guidance is also offered on choosing techniques, learning
cooperatively, and teaching thematically. Sample surveys, checklists,
assessment protocols, and student profiles are included along with
program profiles and additional resources. The guides include: (1)
"When Is a Content-ESL Program a Good Idea?"; (2) "What Is Sheltered
Content Instruction?"; (3) "Where Can You Go for Additional Help?";
(4) "What Should You Read if You Want To Know More about this
Approach?"; (5) "What Does a Content-ESL Program Look Like?"; (6)
"How Do You Decide Who Should Be in Content-ESL"; (7) "How Will Your
Curriculum Change?"; (8) "How Are You Going To Access These
Students?"; (9) "How Can You Identify Good Content-ESL Material";
(10) "How Can You Adapt the Material You're Using Now?"; (11) "What
Are You Going To Do if You Can't Speak the Students' Language?"; (12)
"What Can You Do When You Have a Linguistically Diverse Group in One
Classroom?"; (13) "How Can You Make Your Program Fit Your School's
and District's Goals?"; and (14 and 15) "How Do You Write a Lesson
Plan for Students with Limited English Proficiency?" Contains a
substantial refereneA list. (NAV)

Many people contributed to the development of these training modules.
First and foremost are the many students, teachers, andadministrators across the country who participated in the
OBEMLA-funded study of content-ESL practices that led up to their development. The study could not have
taken place, nor would these modules would ever havebeen produced, without their active collaboration.
In addition, Tim D'Emilio (OBEMLA) was instrumental ingetting the the project under way, and his colleague
Milagros Lanauze provided helpful feedback on an earlier draft.
On the CAL side, Jodi Crandall and Donna Christian were sourcesof inspiration and support throughout. In
addition, Deborah Short, a key research associate on the study and a prominent content-ESL teacher educator,
made substantive contributions, as did Ann Galloway.
Finally, by() other CAL staff members should be mentioned for their fine professional support: dotti kauffman
and Margaret Crandall. Their organizational skills and general efficiency are much appreciated.
