In each lesson, exercises that focus on funetions show the learner how and when to use certain ‘words, phrases, and sentences, ‘In addition, language and academic skills exercises are interspersed throughout the lessons. These focus on developing the learner's language proficiency in listening, speaking, reading, end writing, The Scope and Sequence chart located on the previous page shows the content of the current book. The four columns outline the new material as it relates to the language acquisition components described above, Bach lesson begins with a table of contents followed by a preview page.

In today's math class, Jim’s students are studying shapes. A shape is a drawing made of lines. Jim draws a shape on the board and tells his students how to ‘make it, He describes the lines he has to draw to make the shape. Here's what he says. Here are two shapes. Each one has four sides.

He tells the students ‘what you ean do with numbers, and he describes what shapes look like. He uses line drawings. First, he draws the shapes. ‘Then, he describes them. Finally, he compares the shapes to other shapes. He shows that some shapes are alike, For example, he draws a square and a rectangle and compares them. He tells the students that both shapes are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. Both have four sides and four right angles (90°), but a ‘square must have four sides that are the edge, ‘Then, he draws two more shapes, for example, a rectangle and a circle. He contrasts them and explains how they are different. The first is made of four straight lines, and it has four sides. The other shape is round. It is made with one eurved line. ‘That line is the outside edge of the circle Jim's descriptions and draw-ngs are very clear. His students learn well. When he tells them to draw a circle, taey always draw the correct shape. When he tells them to draw a ngle, they draw a shape with three sides, They don't make mistakes because they learn well.
