Trudell, Barbara L., and Martha Jakway. 1990. "A sketch of SIL-prepared bilingual education materials in Peruvian Amazonia." Notes on Literacy. Interest level: general.

Summary
 

Describes materials presently used in the Peruvian Ministry of Education bilingual education program. SIL has been heavily involved since the program began in 1953. Approximately 26 language groups of the Peruvian jungle participated in the government bilingual education program. Each used materials developed by SIL in its own language. All materials are subject to approval by the government education office before publication. Materials have evolved over the years, adapting to new government regulations and to the results of testing in bilingual schools.

 

Presents the basis and emphasis of materials, methods, and stages of reading. Also shows how to teach Spanish as a second language, math, and natural and social sciences in such a program.
