This new resource provides a framework to guide classroom teachers, reading specialists, and ESL teachers as they organize, plan, and implement oral language, reading, and writing instruction for English language learners. A oneof- its-kind guide, it addresses the needs of children who are learning to read and write for the first time in English, as well as those who are learning to read and write in English after they have established early literacy skills in their first language. The book connects theory, research, and practice in teaching English Language Learners in the primary grades; addresses oral language and literacy development; includes teaching scenarios; and provides students oral language and writing samples as evidence of student success.
