Taking a community of practice perspective that highlights the
learner as part of a community, rather than a lone individual
responsible for her/his learning, this ethnographically-influenced
study investigates how Latina/o English Language Learners (ELLs) in
middle school mathematics classes negotiated their learning of
mathematics and mathematical discourse. The classes in which the
Latina/o students were enrolled used a reform-oriented approach to
math learning; the math in these classes was - to varying degrees -
taught using a hands-on, discovery approach to learning where group
learning was valued, and discussions in and about math were
critical. This book presents the stories of how six immigrant and
American-born ELLs worked with their three teachers of varied
ethnicity, education, experience with second language learners, and
training in reform-oriented mathematics curricula to gain a degree
of competence in the mathematical discourse they used in class.
Identity, participation, situated learning, discourse use by
learners of English as a Second Language (ESL), framing in
language, and student success in mathematics are all critical
notions that are highlighted within this school-based research.

Using their tried-and-tested English Method training, the authors
unpack the core learning issues, such as differentiation and the
development of thinking skills, essential to all initial teacher
training programmes. Linking theory and practice, with direct links
to key theorists and ideas about learning, each chapter includes: a
modelled analysis of a pupil's writing or talk on a particular
theme; an exploration of the learning challenges within a specific
age range or modality of English; focussed, practical activities
centered upon a specific text, including oral, written, visual,
multi-modal, print-bound and electronic material; and follow-up
activities, including immediate questions for reflection, guided
reading and ideas for use in the classroom. This is the complete
guide that every trainee English teacher planning for learning in
the secondary classroom needs.
