Publisher's Synopsis

Discover the ways teachers and researchers apply up-to-date TESOL research to meet both content and language acquisition criteria while also affirming students' cultural knowledge, life experiences, and language abilities. Like the high school grades themselves, the chapters in this volume are organized by academic content area including language arts, social studies, science, and math.

  • Unpack two major factors of teaching high school English learners: students' English proficiency level and their previous educational experiences.
  • Understand the benefits of using guided visualization, graphic organizers, and scaffolding techniques to comprehend complex texts and mathematical lessons.
  • Create a collaborative classroom environment using project-based learning and encouraging dialogue with peers.
  • Learn how to deliver culturally relevant and creative instruction while supporting English learners in acquiring both academic and social English skills.
