TRANSITION: Developing Reading Comprehension Skills and Knowledge in U.S. History, with a Focus on Industrialization, Wars, and U.S. Government and Economic Systems
This reading comprehension textbook is designed to help your learners increase their general knowledge and develop strong reading comprehension skills to transition to ASE, GED, HiSET, or technical training. The book aligns with and goes beyond the English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS) for Adult Education, College and Career Readiness Standards, and Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) expectations, ensuring your ESL/ELL students are ready to read and comprehend content-based lessons, academic concepts, and instructions.
Teaching Frameworks Featured in This Textbook
The textbook applies two evidence-based teaching frameworks. Its reading questions are based on Bloom's Taxonomy's six levels of objectives, and the questions vary from basic to complex to help instructors create reading objectives
Additionally, the book teaches learners how to apply the SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review) reading framework or method to increase their reading comprehension skills and recall what they read.
Content-Based Learning
In addition to developing learners' reading comprehension skills, this book uses content-based lessons to increase learners' knowledge of U.S. history from Industrialization through Modern U.S. topics, as well as related topics in U.S. government, wars, and economy. It allows learners to develop the skills and background knowledge they need to succeed in ASE, GED, HiSET, and technical classes, as well as related exams.
In summary, the book presents 17 learner-centered reading lessons to improve students' ability to navigate academic content by equipping them with explicit reading strategies to identify main ideas, uncover details, make inferences, summarize content, apply knowledge, and understand authors' perspectives and key concepts.
