ERIC ED364084: Pashto Conversation Manual and Pashto Conversation Tapescript.

This conversation manual and tapescript are part of a set of materials that have been developed to teach oral and written Afghan Pashto to English speakers. In addition to the conversation manual and tapescript, the set consists of a beginning textbook, an intermediate textbook, a reader, and a set of taped lessons that correlate with the textbooks. The materials are designed to bring an English-speaking student to a 2+ or 3 on the Interagency Language Roundtable proficiency scale, or an Advanced on the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages proficiency scale. Pashto Conversation Manual contains 14 lessons that correspond to 2 units of the beginning or intermediate Pashto textbook/workbook. The lessons provide additional speaking and listening practice on the material contained in the units, as well as exposure to different dialects. The tapescript contains the oral prompts for the exercises in the manual. An overview and brief description of each component of the Pashto materials is included. (Author/AB)
