Title | Book: English Learners: Reaching the Highest Level of English Literacy |
Body | From: http://marketplace.reading.org/products/tnt_products.cfm?Subsystem= ORD&primary_id=455&product_class=IRABOOK&action=Long English Learners: Reaching the Highest Level of English Literacy takes a critical look at the literacy development of English learners through the eyes of original theorists and current practitioners. These authors examine the essential components of English language development and recommend specific practices for successful implementation. The collection proposes new ways of looking at practice in the context of what is presently done for English learners, emphasizes the need to reexamine current instructional practices, and suggests what can be done to change them. The book also examines reading and English literacy instruction for English learners in a political and educational context in which simultaneous achievement of both English language acquisition and English language arts is required. Finally, the book suggests the importance of students' cultural roots and celebrates the variety of voices that English learners represent. Table of Contents and Sample Chapter are available at the site listed above. |
