| Summary: | "Highly trained and experienced teachers are often ill-prepared to help language learners in the classroom even when they have a wealth of ELA teaching experience. Workshop models and professional books provide them with frameworks and examples, but few effectively prepare them for students who are acquiring English, especially newcomers, SLIFEs, and L-TELs. This book is for 4th through 12th grade English Language Arts teachers and coordinators who are responsible for the education of multilingual learners. It is organized around widely-used teaching methodologies and contains explicit guidance for research-based strategies focused on the needs of English Learners. It includes an original unit planning guide, examples of the authors' practices, student profiles, and inquiry units in the form of curriculum that can be used throughout the school year"--
