Minimal skill sequences are listed for primary, elementary, middle, and secondary age levels for the following quantitative topic areas: clock time, calendar use, money, temperature, weight, volume, velocity, fitting size, and length area. Communication skill sequences cover the following topics (sample subtopics in parentheses): receptive skills (reading decoding, reading comprehension); thinking; expressive skills (oral vocabulary, content, handwriting, and composition). Among appendixes are three informal reading inventories and a basic math skill sequence. Seven accompanying booklets list activities to promote the acquisition of basic communication skills. (CL)
