Inhaltsangabe

Land of Liberty is a text designed to prepare beginning ESL students for the challenge of passing their USCIS Citizenship Exam. All facets of the test are included: Reading, Civics, Speaking, and Writing. First, a high-interest reading selection introduces students to America s story, told in simple, but not simplistic terms. Next, in the interview practice section of each chapter, students get the chance to read a model of a prospective citizen going through his Citizenship interview and then practice with their own information. Then, students can hone their English skills with guided practice that focuses on the English grammar and vocabulary that is actually used in the test, reinforcing the information even more. Finally, there are 40 sentences for dictation practice using all the vocabulary designated for the Writing portion of the official Citizenship Exam. It s an All-of-the-Above approach to get students ready to become new U.S. citizens in no time!
