Calling all teacher brides!

Hey Ladies- I just started my master's program for education. I wasn't an education major in undergrad, so I'm still new at everything. I have to do a presentation on the Language Experience Approach (LEA) and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for examples I could use, or ones that you've used in your classrooms. Any advice or websites, anything would be appreciated! TIA!!!

Thank you SummerBride06 ... I just FMed you!

LEA is not a new term...the book I got from the library was printed in 1970 and I think that is when this approach first came out. Some teachers probably do it, but don't realize it's LEA.

Language Experience Approach is when students go into the environment to experience a hands on and then returns to the classroom and usually engages in a whole class writing experience.
