Description

Crossing America is an interactive rhetoric with in-depth reading and writing exercises. Activities focus on competencies that skilled readers and writers must master. The text follows a thematic approach designed to provide cultural knowledge and awareness both to native speakers of English and to the limited-English-language population. Commonly-used rhetorical modes are covered in the book.This book differs from other texts in that it combines the skills covered in traditional academic reading and writing courses into a single text. It can be used in courses that combine reading and writing, in courses that are taught separately, in English as a second language (ESL) courses, and in Web-based courses ranging from a beginning level through the freshman composition course. The text begins with an extensive introductory unit that presents an overview of methods used for strengthening reading and writing skills. At the same time, this textbook focuses on building an awareness of the diversity in American culture. It also introduces many writers' works from ethnic minorities in America. Additionally, each unit provides activities to supplement skills taught, rhetorical modes presented, and themes covered. Included in these modules are American idioms related to the theme, Web site visits with assigned activities and films to view.
