The two colleges I teach at both use the StandOut series by Staci Lyn
Sabbagh and Rob Jenkins, published by Thomson/Heinle.  There is a unit
in all four levels of the text that address health issues.  The series
also has a test bank that provides ESOL assessment support.  I usually
augment the class with a visit from an RN who shares how to plan for
doctor visits and so they get the most out of the trip to the Dr., and
articles I've gathered over the years.  I often have a CPR trainer come
and train and certify the students.

Hello!

Has anyone worked with specific ESOL Health Literacy Curricula available
out there? We are looking for:

-resources currently available

-anecdotal feedback from teachers and/or students about the "health
literacy for ESOL students" topic

-examples of evaluation forms and pre-/post- knowledge assessment
questionnaires for such curricula

Any help will be appreciated... Thanks!
