About This Item
Synopsis
With its strong research base, engaging style, and descriptions of specific teaching strategies, this popular book covers the essential topics of first and second language acquisition, oral language development, writing, reading, vocabulary, and reading and writing across the curriculum (Content-Based Instruction).While retaining the strengths of its previous editions, most notably the comprehensive, accessible approach and wealth of practical research-based strategies, this book helps pre- and in-service teachers promote literacy and language development for K-12 English Learners. The book highlights content-based instruction and shows how to differentiate instruction for ELs based on their prior knowledge and language proficiencies. Unlike many texts in this field, Reading, Writing and Learning in ESL explains how contemporary language acquisition theory informs instruction, while providing suggestions and methods for motivating ELs’ English language, literacy and content learning.In this new Sixth Edition, the authors include an in-depth discussion of academic language; an exploration of the demands of Internet reading compared to traditional text reading; and a presentation of Response to Intervention (RtI) as applied to ELs. They also integrate technology throughout with over 100 Internet links that add depth and breadth to the topics. Included are links featuring experts discussing their areas of expertise, and links illustrating strategies being used in today’s classrooms.
