Good Afternoon Folks,

Once again I find myself in need of your wisdom and experience.  I have
just found out there is money available to an ESL program I work for to
provide some type of transitional or bridging classes/event for
students.  I am curious to find out what a transitional program looks
like in your programs and what your definition of such a program is. 
What materials have you found helpful and use?

My thinking - DE does not have low advanced - high advanced ESL
classes(No comment). I was toying with the idea of using the idea of a
"transitional class" to meet the needs of students in those levels?
Any thoughts?

As always your responses are greatly appreciated!

Cindy Shermeyer
