Student Textbook: TABE 13 and 14 Language Test Level M
This student textbook is designed to prepare adult learners for the TABE 13 and 14 Language Test Level M and for admission tests for vocational training. It includes exercises to help adult education and workforce programs and their learners meet the expectations of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).
The textbook is organized into three (3) main sections: 1) Text types and purposes, including writing to express opinions and explain ideas; 2) Knowledge of language and vocabulary, including conventions, academic and figurative language; and 3) Conventions of standard English, including grammar, punctuation, and spelling. The language exercises and the practice test in this textbook align with the TABE 13 and 14 Language Test Level E blueprints and cover the College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standards for Language.
This language arts textbook presents twelve (12) chapters, each with 5 engaging language arts lessons and answer keys. The book also includes one practice test with answer keys. Each lesson includes answer keys. The book applies Bloom's Taxonomy's six levels of learning (Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating, and Creating) to engage learners in active, rigorous reading, language, and writing tasks that build learners' academic vocabulary, English grammar knowledge, reading comprehension, and critical thinking skills.
Furthermore, this textbook teaches learners to apply the SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recite, and Review) reading method to improve their reading comprehension and recall. This book's language arts activities teach and assess the following skills:
• Apply English grammar and conventions when writing, reading, and answering questions orally.
• Determine the meanings of new words and phrases using context clues.
• Show comprehension of word relationships and nuances in verb tense and word choice.
• Write paragraphs expressing opinions on various topics and supporting those views with arguments.
• Write informative and explanatory paragraphs to share ideas and information.
• Use words and phrases appropriately to complete sentences, engage in conversations, and write paragraphs.
• Engage in academic reading using general academic concepts and domain-specific vocabulary, concepts, and phrases.
• Apply English grammar and conventions in writing and speaking.
• Apply standard English conventions (capitalization, punctuation, and spelling) when writing.
This textbook saves instructors time and helps learners move beyond simple WH- questions to complete reading and language tasks. Its exercises mimic the rigor of the real TABE Language Test. This teaching tool is not just about language arts- it's about equipping your learners with the academic vocabulary, grammar, writing, and language skills they need to thrive. As your students progress through the lessons, they will gain valuable insights into navigating the complexities of academic language and writing.
