 The Atlas of North American English provides the first overall view of the pronunciation and vowel systems of the dialects of the U.S. and Canada. The Atlas re-defines the regional dialects of American English on the basis of sound changes active in the 1990s and draws new boundaries reflecting those changes. It is based on a telephone survey of 762 local speakers, representing all the urbanized areas of North America. |

 Each Glencoe Reader encourages students to read interactively by marking up selections and creating a personal dialogue with a variety of American-English texts:
Part I: Fiction, Poetry, and Drama
Part II: Non-fiction and Informational Text: Literary non-fiction, mass media, functional documents, maps, and more!
Part III: Reading and Succeeding on Standardized Tests: Reading and writing test lessons
In each selection of The Glencoe Reader, there is a variety of engaging activities the students can complete on their own or with a partner, a small group, or the entire class.
This reader-cum-workbook has been put together for US high school students, but should also prove useful in an ESL/EFL environment, where the focus is on reading, understanding, and working with different types of American-English texts. |
