Secondary ELA teachers, be excited: here at last is that crash course in utilizing the best of what we already know about teaching reading, writing, and language to ensure our English learners thrive.
Take Penny Kittle and Donalyn Miller's reader's workshops. Take Kylene Beers and Robert Probst's "signposts." Take the best writing techniques advanced by the National Writing Project. Take Jim Burke's essential questions for life. Award-winning EL authorities Mandy Stewart and Holly Genova describe immediate adaptations you can put in place to simultaneously build your ELs' language and literacy, while affirming their languages, cultures, and unique lived experiences.
A rare blend of the humane and practical, But Does This Work with English Learners? is a book on how to leverage our ELs' full linguistic repertoires in the ELA classroom, while remaining sensitive to those barriers that could restrict learning. With this book as your guide, you'll learn how to:
"As you read this book," Mandy and Holly write, "our hope is that you will begin to see your students as multilinguals--people who already have language as well as a wealth of knowledge and are just adding English to that great repertoire." If you have even a single English learner in your classroom, we urge you to read this book and institute its practices. Right away!
"Mandy Stewart and Holly Genova have given us a primer for the evolving complexities of our classroom melting pots, a map for navigating the murky waters of regulations, and most importantly, a recipe for opening our arms to children from all over the world. They welcome them with thoughts like 'A foreign accent is a sign of bravery.'"
--GRETCHEN BERNABEI, Coauthor of Fun-Sized Academic Writing for Serious Learning
"After reading this book, I was left with the feeling that I learned something new on every page--something that I had previously either wondered about or struggled to understand. Mandy Stewart and Holly Genova are the guides we all need to help us understand and better address the needs of our English learners."
--JIM BURKE, Author of The English Teacher's CompanionYou may return most new, unopened items within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We'll also pay the return shipping costs if the return is a result of our error (you received an incorrect or defective item, etc.).
