Abstract: This handbook is a practical aid intended to help the tutor of adult illiterates assess the student's needs, evaluate his progress, and plan a program which will assist him in reaching the level of functional literacy (i.e., the ability to develop reading skills and vocabulary, using reference books, without outside help). Evaluation and lesson planning are emphasized. The four sections cover (1) planning and preparatory work before meeting the student; (2) activities and skills to prepare for the early stages of reading, and a form of the language experience method; (3) the planning, teaching, and evaluation of the phonic element; and (4) suggestions for interest materials and bibliographies for both student and teacher use. Checklists and cross references related to subjects covered in the handbook are included. (TA)
