Balancing Reading and Language Learning
Mary Cappellini
Teaching reading to children in a language that is not their own is a daunting task. Combining the best classroom practices and research on teaching reading and language acquisition, Mary integrates effective reading instruction with effective language instruction.
Becoming One Community
Kathleen Fay and Suzanne Whaley
In today's diverse classrooms, many teachers struggle with how to create reading and writing instruction that is appropriate for their English language learners.
Making Sense
Juli Kendall and Outey Khuon
Making Sense outlines fifty-two lessons that teach students how to make connections, ask questions, visualize, infer, determine importance, and synthesize. The book's five main sections are geared to the stages of language proficiency, and lessons are divided into "younger" and "older" students, spanning kindergarten through grade 8.
