The quinmester course intended for pupils speaking English as a second language aims to teach students to ask and answer questions and discuss, orally and in written form, basic concepts in social studies such as transportation, map reading, family, friends, school, home, neighborhood, and community in an attempt to help them function effectively in the community. A framework is provided by eight specific context areas: Doing Things Now; Customary Activities; Describing Objects; Clothing and Colors; Where; Yesterday, Last Week, Last Month; Yours, Mine, Ours, and Theirs; and, Going Places. Each context area has two or more sections of language practice to facilitate division into lesson plans and is further subdivided into patterns, suggested substitutions (vocabulary), specific measurable objectives, suggested teaching procedures, and correlations with standard English Second Language Materials.
