TitleThematic Units Available for Download
Body
From http://flnews.cortland.edu/flteach/thematic_units

The approximately 130 thematic units contained on these two freely downloadable CDs represent the work of some 200 students (undergraduate and graduate) who collaborated in their creation at both the University of Kansas and the University of South Florida. They were enrolled in Paul A. García’s Foreign Languages (FL) or English as a Second Language (ESL) methods courses at their respective universities during the years 2002-2010. Therefore, the user of these documents will find materials for English Learners (ELs), French, German, and Spanish students, K-12. An additional item to be found is the 2003 version of an extensive unit on Argentina that Dr. García co-authored with two former doctoral students at the University of Kansas.

About 1/3 of the total number of units were created under the auspices of a USDE Title III teacher development grant that Dr. García wrote and directed for add-on ESL endorsement of classroom teachers in the Topeka, Kansas, Schools (USD 501). The website where some 40 of the units are to be found is http://www.t4grant.org . There, users will also find a substantial collection of songs, games, and sponges for use with their classes.
