Abstract	Containing 11 English vocabulary development units and 10 culturally relevant literature units, this student's book is part of a program in English language arts developed for bilingual, bicultural sixth grade classes. The vocabulary units, designed to develop communication competency not only in grammar and literature but also in other subject areas, includes exercises on the alphabet; filling out a form; changes in language; language of mathematics, religion, and politics; finding words in the dictionary when correct spelling is unknown; generational word differences (examples from the forties, fifties, sixties); and cooking vocabulary. The literature units consist of stories written for this publication about Mexican American children living in Texas as well as translations of traditional stories from Spanish-speaking countries. Included are exercises on the language of poetry and activities related to stories presented. Some of the stories are given with both English and Spanish texts; others in English may include Spanish words, but they are contextually clued to enable students to follow the story line. Necessary vocabulary lists (in English and Spanish) accompany each story. The language arts program, also appropriate for other elementary grades or junior high classes, has a teacher's guide for use with the student's book. (RS)
