Description & Features
Visions is our newest four-level language development program that supports students from the newcomer level through transition into mainstream classrooms. By incorporating fine literature with content, students learn and amply practice the skills they need to meet grade-level standards while being introduced to the academic language needed for school success!
- VISIONS is a 4-level series that includes: Newcomer (Basic), Beginning (A), Intermediate (B), Advanced/Transition (C).
- Basic level for non-schooled and low-beginning students provides systematic language development as well as literacy instruction.
- Staff development handbook and video is designed for easy program access.
- High-interest, low-level literature and content-based readings motivate students.
- Scaffolding throughout all four books uses a three-pronged approach to meeting the standards: Into, Through, and Beyond.
- Writing activities reinforce and recycle strategic skills.
- Quality assessment materials and ExamView test-generating software are aligned with state standards and exams.
- Technology reinforces listening/speaking, reading skills, and phonemic development.
- The Heinle Reading Library gives students practice in independent reading with classic stories tied to Student Book themes.
