This reproducible, multilevel curriculum for English Literacy and Civics Education contains six field-tested and illustrated models: (1) The Democratic Process; (2) Community and Home Safety; (3) The Public Library; (4) The U.S. School System; (5) Public Health Services; and (6) Housing. The package includes the following: the Community Connections Curriculum (310 pages of illustrated, multilevel lessons and teaching techniques); a classroom picture set (243 pages of enlarged, cardstock illustrations from the curriculum); and a flashcard picture set (200 cardstock flashcards for individual and group vocabulary practice). The teaching techniques include using pictures for vocabulary development, using pictures for language experience, teaching the reading passages, teaching dialogues and role plays, and experiential activities (planning successful field trips and making the most of guest speakers).
