A new companion for every English teacher
""Why have I written an entirely new English Teacher's
Companion? Because to offer you anything less would suggest I had
not grown, changed, or evolved these past fifteen years. I am not
the same teacher I was when I wrote the first edition."" -Jim
Burke
The fourth edition of "English Teacher's Companion" is 100
percent new. Jim Burke has rewritten it to model methods for
reaching a new generation of students-when all the ground rules for
teaching are changing.
A teacher's teacher and a recognized leader in English/language
arts education, Jim understands the need for instructional methods
that connect the why of teaching to the how. "This edition makes
the research behind my practice more explicit," he writes. "It is
also anchored in the Common Core State Standards, because I am
still teaching every day-so these standards are my standards
too."
Weaving in ideas for working with ELLs, struggling readers, and
technology, "English Teacher's Companion," Fourth Edition: looks
comprehensively at the research and reality of our profession, our
students, and our content provides practical and thoughtful methods
for meeting standards in reading, writing, speaking and listening,
and language study makes assessment a priority, not only to find
out what students know but to help practitioners improve. "I have
taught English for nearly 25 years, and I love it," writes Jim
Burke. Never has this love been more apparent than in the numerous
lessons and teaching moves he includes as well as in the many
examples of his own classroom language. Trust the fourth edition of
"English Teacher's Companion," and bring the passion, power, and
practicality of one of America's best teachers to your
classroom.
