ENGLISH LEARNERS IN CORE CONTENT

“I highly recommend this book to secondary educators who are honestly trying to understand what lesson elements are needed to truly support the language development of English learners while maintaining expectations for rigorous content learning. The authors provide practical examples, templates, and clearly described processes and procedures. This would be a great choice for a collaborative book study, for new teachers, and for veteran teachers seeking to improve the overall effectiveness of their instruction.” —JULIE MELTZER, DIRECTOR OF CURRICULUM, MOUNT DESERT ISLAND REGIONAL SCHOOL SYSTEM
