In this video, the instructor talks about her own family using a picture she brought to class. When her adult ESOL learner begins talking about one of his family members, the instructor uses the Language Experience Approach (LEA) to write exactly what he says. She then helps him read his own story and finally uses it to reinforce an initial consonant sound and to teach sight words.
In Part 2, a separate video, the instructor uses LEA with a small group of learners as they create a story based on their experiences with winter in the U.S.
