Enriching Practice in Linguistically and Culturally Diverse Classrooms
By Eva Ponte, Christina Higgins
This book presents a professional development (PD) framework that targets the need of in-service teachers and staff working with English language learners (ELLs). This step-by-step guide is the result of a longitudinal ELL PD project in two elementary schools in Honolulu, Hawaii, and it provides a rich example for pre-service and practicing teachers of leaning how to teach students from diverse language backgrounds.
