Case studies, points for discussion or reflection and research summaries are incorporated in this accessible text. Clear links to the Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) standards for both England and Wales are provided, and a bank of suggested resources and support material is included.Essential reading for all trainee teachers working with EAL students and a useful resource for practitioners looking to refresh their skills.
Industry Reviews
'This is an excellent, well structured book that covers the main issues around the teaching and learning of additional-language pupils and contains a wide range of well researched practical strategies that can be used in the classroom. With increasing cultural and ethnic diversity in schools, this book needs to be required reading for all teachers, trainee teachers and anyone involved in the education of EAL pupils.' Chris Remigio, Newly Qualified Physics Teacher, Queen Elizabeth High School, Carmarthen, Wales
