New in America integrates learning English with life skills in a new culture. Topics include how to find a new apartment, deal with apartment problems, learn to compare prices and find good places to shop. Each chapter features a story of people from different countries as they settle in America. Vocabulary is learned through comprehension and physical response using pictures followed by dialogues where students interact with the teacher and their classmates. Grammar is taught using practical examples followed by writing and speaking exercises. The book has a teacher's guide, and is easy to use for teachers and volunteers without experience teaching ESL. There are video recordings for the vocabulary words and for the stories in each chapter.
