Dear Gail, et al, 

A few months ago, I shared with the listserve that I was preparing to
teach a writing couse for Head Start teachers, all of whose first
language is Spanish, are very fluent in spoken English, and have varying
skills in written English.  The class is called writing 90 which,at
Treasure Valley Community, is college-prep.  The purpose of the class is
to prepare them for college-level Writing 121.  Some will be ready after
this class;  Others may have to take writing 95 and possible writng 115.
 I will share with you, verbatim, a paragraph.  I would like to know
what other people on the listserve think would be the best way to help
this individual.
