This compilation of instructional materials, activities, and curricula is based on materials developed in an intensive English as a second language (ESL) and cultural orientation program conducted in Indochinese refugee processing centers in Southeast Asia beginning in 1980. Students in the 14- to 20-week program ranged in age from 16 to 55 years. This volume begins with a collection of general classroom techniques, including dialogues, drills, and games and activities. Each technique or activity is described on a single sheet. An additional section is devoted to similar activities designed specifically to foster literacy. Finally, a collection of competency-related ESL activities, arranged according to skill level deals with such everyday concerns as housing, food, banking, health, and employment. A bibliography concludes the volume. (JB)
