Equitable Access for English Learners, Grades K-6

More about the book

""Equitable Access for English Learners, Grades K-6" is a guide for classroom teachers to help them scaffold school or district adopted language arts/reading programs to meet the needs of diverse learners and especially English learners. It begins with general instructional strategies, including organizing around units of inquiry and teaching language and content, and it follows a gradual release of responsibility model, using trans-languaging strategies like preview/view/review. Each subsequent chapter includes a detailed unit description based on texts found in most mandated language arts materials. These examples from commonly taught units at different grade levels demonstrate the strategies teachers can use with any unit of study. The strategies are explained as they apply to commonly used texts and are then organized into lists as part of a summary of each chapter"--
