Abstract	This guide outlines a curriculum designed to provide English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) life-skills instruction for refugees in the Chicago metropolitan area, concentrating on the Level One survival skills. Non-Southeast Asians account for more than half of those served, all of whom receive, or are at risk of receiving, public assistance. Most are aged 25-40 years, and two-thirds have been in the United States for longer than 6 months. Approximately 50% have 0-3 years of education in their own countries, and work experiences range from farming/fishing to engineering, with most in unskilled jobs. After initial needs assessment by bilingual staff, Project Work English consists of 3 levels of instruction: Level One, survival, Level Two pre-employment, and Level Three, pre-employment. Students attend special job workshops, often in their native language, and industry specific needs are also addressed, such as for food production/service, woodcraft, housekeeping, and auto mechanics. The guide includes Work English competencies for Level One and the following instructional units: basic literacy skills; personal identification; money; shopping, time and dates; telephone, health, emergencies; directions; transportation; housing; post office, banking/bills; social language; and clarification. A Level One screening test, key competencies checklist, and Work english achievement test are also included. (Contains six references.) (NAV) (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse for ESL Literacy Education)
