The curriculum guide for teachers of Spanish language arts for native Spanish-speaking primary students in the Chicago public schools' bilingual education program is introduced by a section on preparing instructional material for this group and a section defining the areas to be emphasized in the program: word attack, comprehension skills, study skills, literature appreciation, and writing. Sections follow for each of the areas of emphasis, containing specific behavioral objectives and skills, instructional strategies and class activities for them, evaluation criteria, and a place for teachers to note useful references. Some illustrations are provided. The text is entirely in Spanish. (MSE)
