LINC 1 - 5 Curriculum Guidelines : a Computer Integrated Curriculum based on Canadian Language Benchmarks 2000.

This resource replaces two documents: LINC 4 & 5 Curriculum Guidelines (1999) and the LINC 1 - 3 Curriculum Guidelines (1997).

This on-line curriculum resource corresponds to Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB) 2000, the Canadian standards which describe a person’s ability to use the English language.

This new document differs from the original LINC curriculum guidelines in a number of ways:

• Five LINC levels are now included in one publication

• The material is organized by themes rather than levels

• The level outcomes have separate competencies for all four skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing).

• Sample tasks have been developed for each of the four skills

• Topic outcomes have been rewritten to correspond to the CLB 2000

• All topic pages include relevant pronunciation items

• New resources have been added for planning and evaluation

• Text and Web-based resources appear on the topic pages

• Computer tasks are fully integrated into the sample language tasks and include a variety of activities such as spreadsheets and presentations
