We humans want to belong, and family is the first group that can reward that wish. More often than not, family ranks very high in personal values among us all. How often do we support our students in that regard?
One way to support that characteristic among our adults students might be to include family issues in all of our instruction even beyond family-literacy practices.
Do you include family issues or concerns in instructing ABE, ASE, and ESL students? Please share your practices and/or resources for doing so. Leecy
