This communication arts program is part of a larger plan designed to provide a continuing link between the language arts component of grades 3 through 6 and the language arts programs for middle and high schools in Hartford, Connecticut. The purpose of the program is to develop communication skills in sequence, and to relate all of the communication skills to each other. The student receives a foundation in perceptual training, oral language development, and reading-writing skills; the teachers and students are then given options for achieving their own objectives. Among the related materials used in this program are audio cards, cassettes, games, diagnostic tests, and supplementary books. Practical activities and suggestions are included in this course guide. The program also contains an evaluation form. (RS)
