This booklet along with six others comprises a curriculum guide developed for adult education supervisors and teachers of undereducated workers or job seekers whose inability to develop the skills and obtain the knowledge necessary to meet the requirements of the working world are primarily due to a lack of competence in reading and math skills. This fourth booklet outlines a prescriptive career-oriented adult instructional program (an individualized program of study prescribed according to each worker's specific job requirements and proficiency level in math and reading skills) for undereducated construction employees. (Booklets 5-7 are the other instructional packets developed in each of the following areas: Manufacturing, municipal government, and health services.) This booklet contains 14 one- to two-page lesson plans in which reading or math are taught in conjunction with specific job-related tasks to help workers increase their job performance as they become more proficient in reading and math. Each lesson plan in outline format includes the following: Title; identification as a reading or mathematics instructional plan for a specific skill level; related career knowledge area; the specific skill being taught; behavioral objectives; lists of instructional activities, procedures, and teacher materials (blueprints are attached); and suggested type of evaluation.
