GO! Welcome Newcomers® helps immigrant tweens navigate their new life in the United States, one real topic at a time, from settling into a new school to exploring what their future could look like. Built around 14 key topics in total, the complete library pairs 28 titles, three copies each, so every topic gets both a nonfiction book teaching the skill and a fiction story putting it into practice. Each library includes a full Teacher's Guide with lesson plans, vocabulary instruction, strategic reading questions, and assessments, plus a set of 140 Survival Vocabulary Cards, since research consistently points to vocabulary acquisition as one of the biggest levers for students learning English. An audiobook set is also available separately for classrooms that want an additional way in.

Topics include: American Culture, Community and Health Resources, Exploring Your Future, Food and Meals, Grooming, Money Basics, Safety, School Basics, School Expectations, School Success, Social Skills, Sports and Activities, Transportation, Weather and Natural Disasters
