I love to visit similar organization websites to see what they are doing.  Here is Arlington County, Virginia's Education and Employment Program (REEP) program website.  "REEP offers English classes at variety of levels which help prepare adults to use the English language while functioning in their roles as parents, workers, and community members. Our mission is to provide for the education and employment-related needs of limited English proficient adults who live and work in Arlington." Find links to an online curriculum, Family Literacy and student and teacher resources. http://www.arlington.k12.va.us/instruct/ctae/adult_ed/REEP/  

A list of recommended Family Literacy resources from the National Institute for Literacy. literacy.kent.edu/~illinois/illfamilychild.html  

A simply designed collaborative writing website for "adult literacy, basic education or English language learning students".  www.seedwiki.com/wiki/writing_together/writing_together.cfm  

Writing Den's "Tip-O-Matic" gives advice on how to write sentences, paragraphs and essays.  You probably haven't seen a site like this before.  www2.actden.com/writ_den/tips/contents.htm  

Eater's Way to TESOL http://nersp.nerdc.ufl.edu/~eli/teachers/activities/tesl2/cs/eat/#Recipe.  An interesting site developed by university students who explored ways to use Internet resources on food and drink as a language teaching tool.  

Google has launched a new site dedicated to literacy.  "Find books, articles and videos about literacy, or start your own literacy or reading group!" www.google.com/literacy

Finally, an article that discusses the difference between 'false' and 'absolute' beginning ESL students.  Dig deeper into the article for specific teaching strategies.  http://esl.about.com/library/weekly/aa022101a.htm
