Written to accompany the Adult Basic Education (ABE) Level II reading skills workbook of the PATHWAYS Curriculum, this teacher's guide contains brief explanations of the various skills presented in the workbook, suggested teaching strategies, answers to workbook exercises, and a list of available commercial materials that may be used to supplement the exercises. Lessons are grouped under the unit topics of word analysis, vocabulary, comprehension, and study skills. Units contain a total of 19 lessons, each addressing a specific skill such as consonant blends and diagraphs, compound words, identifying the main idea, and using the dictionary.
