In her new book, nationally known professional development
consultant and literacy expert Socorro Herrera is joined by two
colleagues to provide a framework for academic vocabulary and
language instruction in today’s diverse classrooms. The authors
present a set of strategies and tools that work effectively across
all content to support enhanced comprehension and academic success.
The strategies have evolved from over a decade of research and
classroom observation to provide teachers with multiple avenues for
making content accessible and relevant for all students, especially
those who are culturally and linguistically diverse. Each strategy
supports teachers in using what students already know as a
foundation for integrating new vocabulary and building content-area
language skills. The authors provide a thorough explanation of how
to use each strategy to document student knowledge and learning
throughout the before, during, after phases of the lesson. Drawing
on current research about how the brain works, second language
acquisition, and classroom communities, this user-friendly resource
features: Filled-in samples of student work that provide evidence
of what is possible. Teacher-to-teacher voices highlighting
successful applications in secondary classrooms. Teaching tips to
accompany every strategy.Templates for vocabulary-building student
artefacts.
