This idea started with
Sylvia Ashing-Warner in the 1960s.
The thing to remember is how important
it is that language learning lessons
be built around meaningful content,
significant experiences. Any time you
can help a person write an idea,
no matter how simple, as long as it
is something THEY WANT TO SAY, and
then listen as they read that aloud
to you, you are gearing your instruction
with great precision to that learner's
skill level and needs.
