The Language of Literature meets the inter-ethnic criteria in the following ways: The content of the textbook and instructional support materials clearly indicate, where relevant, that the United States is a multi-ethnic nation. This textbook does not explicitly discuss the multi-ethnic character of the United States, but it is free from ethical, racial, and gender stereotyping in its examples, applications, and illustrations. The viewpoints, attitudes, values, and contributions of various cultural and ethnic groups are depicted and explored throughout the text. The textbook emphasizes the contributions of many persons who influenced the development of the concepts explored in the course.

7 II. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY The instructional material meets the requirements of equal opportunity concept, content, illustration, heritage, roles, contributions, experiences, and achievements of males and females in American and other cultures, as set forth by West Virginia Board of Education Policy (Adopted May 1975). The Language of Literature meets the criteria for equal opportunity in the following ways: The content of the textbook and supporting instructional materials reflect equal opportunities for males and females. The text does not explicitly discuss equality between males and females, but it is free from ethnic, racial, and gender stereotyping in its examples, applications, and illustrations. The textbook includes selections from diverse individuals such as: p. 23 p. 33 Cynthia Rylant Toni Cade Bambera p. 49 Gary Paulsen p. 61 Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings p. 65 William Stafford p. 79 Shel Silverstein p. 84 Gary Soto p. 107 p. 119 Laurence Yep Reeve Lindbergh p. 134 Barbara Kingsolver p. 139 Pat Mora p. 144 Jack London p. 194 p. 197 Gwendolyn Brooks Alfred, Lord Tennyson p. 203 p. 207 Charles Kuralt Ralph Waldo Emerson p. 216 Eve Merriam p. 217 Naoshi Koriyama p. 221 Daniel Keyes p. 250 Don Marquis p. 264 Mark Twain p. 279 Alice Walker p. 286 p. 297 Anton Chekhov Emily Dickinson p. 298 Theodore Roethke p. 303 Julia Alvarez p. 327 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. p. 335 Walter Dean Myers p. 349 Amy Tan p. 359 p. 368 Fred Waitzkin Gabriela Mistral p. 370 Julio Noboa p. 374 Christopher Reeve p. 391 p. 395 Robert Frost Robert Cormier p. 403 E.E.

The textbook does not explicitly discuss the formation of American institutions, the dynamic nature of American society, or the process of communication within and among groups, as a social studies text might be expected to do. It is the policy of the publisher when producing educational content for out textbooks to represent a broad range of persons of all racial and ethnic backgrounds and to show persons in various roles irrespective of gender. We believe our materials reflect respect and tolerance for diversity and reinforce the basic values of our society. 6

9 The pictorial illustrations reflect the equality of males and females. The textbook illustrations depict persons in various career occupations and recreation activities, irrespective of gender. In addition to all of the author studies, other examples are included throughout the text. For example: p. 27 Grocery store workers p. 46 p. 119 High-jumper Pilot p. 130 Aviators p. 145 p. 377 Gold prospectors Activist p. 386 p. 866 Physical Therapist and other career options Baseball players The content assists students in examining their own self-image. The textbook does not explicitly concern itself with students' self-image, but it employs concrete examples that will be familiar to students from their own experiences. The text is written in a highly engaging style that directly addresses the individual student and supports various learning styles. The text was designed with real life themes to make connections to the students' live, for example Unit 1, Understanding Relationships. Each selection begins with a Preparing to Read section that has a feature Connect to Your Life to help identify with the characters, plots and themes and relate what they read to their own lives. Please see the following example pages: 22, 32, 48, 59, 69, 106, 118, 134, 148, 159, 168, 192, 197, 202, 215, 220, 263, 285, 296, 334, 348, 367, 374, 390, 408, 471, 422, 426, 447, 515, 528, 554, 565, 574, 592, 624, 638, 647, 654, 671, 716, 723, 737, 756, 769, 779, 804, 830, 839, 851, 861, 879, 906, 916, 932, 954 7
