English For Your Success

Curriculum Guide for Grades K-1

English for Your Success is a program directed by Noma LeMoine in the Los Angeles Unified School District, and used there successfully, increasing student performance as evaluated on independent assessment instruments, echoing the voices of enthusiastic teachers, students, and parents who have seen firsthand the positive changes in their children. English for Your Success is a language development program created specifically for African American students who benefit from a second-language acquisition model in becoming proficient in Standard American English. English for Your Success is based on twelve unique learning goals which are included in the front of this book, and which are explained in depth in the accompanying Handbook of Successful Strategies for Educators, which you will also want to have before implementing this program.

Teacher Curriculum Guides with ready-to-use classroom lessons for grades Pre-K-1, 2-3, 4-5, and 6-8 are also available.

The Curriculum Guide for Grades Pre-K-1 is a group of lessons based on the learning goals that are appropriate for these grade levels. There are two lessons for each appropriate learning goal. The lessons are complete and ready to use in your classroom, and have been used in Los Angeles classrooms successfully. We also hope that you will write your own lessons based on the learning goals, the model lessons in this book, and with guidance from the accompanying Handbook. We've also included a Lesson Organizers in the back of the curriculum guide to encourage you to copy it to use as a guide in writing your own lessons. ISBN: 1-56256-445-5
