This comprehensive volume describes evidence-based strategies
for supporting English language learners (ELLs) by promoting
meaningful communication and language use across the curriculum.
Leading experts explain how and why learning is different for ELLs
and pinpoint specific best practices for the classroom, illustrated
with vivid examples. Particular attention is given to ways in which
learning English is intertwined with learning the student's home
language. The book addresses both assessment and instruction for
typically developing ELLs and those with language disabilities and
disorders. It demonstrates how educators and speech-language
professionals can draw on students' linguistic, cognitive,
sociocultural, and family resources to help close the achievement
gap.
