Hello,

I am interested in creating an Introduction to Linguistics course at my high 
school, and I had a question about text books. First, can you recommend 
any text suitable for high school students (juniors and seniors)? Second, 
do you know of any books which speak directly to developing linguistics 
curricula in secondary ed?

Thank you so much for your time.
