I am currently teaching an adult ESL that is moving towards inclusion. For one hour in each 3 hour class, the "typical" adult ESL students are joined by younger adults with special needs who are also ESL students. When I began this class I searched for materials and resources for ESL students with special needs, and found only a few things for young children. Does anybody know of anything for the adult population population? The inclusion aspects of the course have been demanding, but quite rewarding. Anybody who would like to talk about inclusion in adult ESL (in the sense of typical and special needs ESL students working together, not as has been described in the most recent postings) feel free to contact me directly. I am thinking about setting up some sort of discussion group or listserv on this topic. Erik Jacobson
