With the increasing linguistic and cultural diversity of
students in U. S. schools, all teachers, regardless of the content
area or grade they teach, need research-based strategies for
assisting all students to gain English proficiency. This practical,
concise guide shows teachers what they need to know about language,
how it is learned, how it is used, and how teaching about it can be
incorporated into lessons throughout the curriculum.
Understanding Language in Diverse Classrooms offers a model of
how learning takes place and describes the critical role of
teachers in that model. It includes comparison charts showing how
some of the most common heritage languages represented among
present-day students compare with English, and it provides examples
of hands-on materials including checklists, rating scales, and
sample lessons to help teachers prepare to teach all their students
in diverse classrooms. Each chapter ends with questions to
stimulate discussion and reflection on major chapter points, to
enable readers to review and evaluate the information and then
integrate it into their own practice.
