Abstract	This document is a teachers' compilation of instructions, step-by-step suggestions, and sample writing activities. It is designed to help the English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) teacher teach adult English language learners who already have excellent communicative and life-skills knowledge, but who need to build better writing skills. Examples are drawn from an intensive adult ESL writing class, meeting 10-15 hours per week. These are self-selected students who have identified a lack of English writing skills as an impediment to further career advancement or to enrolling in post secondary coursework. The activities, processes, and topics described here can be successfully adapted for other levels or for non-intensive classes. Working on and sharing together these writing tasks always serves to bring the students together in a strong classroom community. (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse for ESL Literacy Education) (KFT)
