Thanks Calette. I am interested in adult literacy information/curricula/articles/websites that specifically focus on adult literacy for adults who have mild intellectual difficulties (IQ within 55-70). Did your research uncover anything specific for this subgroup within the field of adult literacy?

** High Priority **

This site has something for everyone from low literacy through professional development. I teach in Adult Ed., Georgetown SC and I use this all the time. For low functioning adults the interactive sites are fantastic!

If you would like others, let me know and I will send more. I have researched nearly 10,000 over the past 8 or 9 years.

Does anyone know of published curricula, websites, or articles that focus on teaching literacy skills to adults with mild intellectual disabilities (i.e. IQ = 55-70)?
Thanks,
Daphne
