Academic Language in Diverse Classrooms: Mathematics, Grades 3-5 by Margo Gottlieb
This title -- one of a seven book series -- will offer guidance to educators in how to target academic language in planning for student learning as states undergo the implementation of the Common Core and corresponding English language proficiency standards in preparation for the upcoming consortia-led assessments.
"With growing numbers of English Language Learners in our classrooms, teachers need to be able to help students as they learn academic vocabulary and conceptsThis series offers teachers a practical support, complete with abundant rubrics and detailed plans for teaching math vocabulary!" -- Renee Peoples, Teacher
“With the many visuals, charts, activity suggestions, and examples of student-teacher conversations, this series is a real-world resource for teachers.” -- Deb Bible, Literacy/Math Interventionist
“The importance of academic language is often overlooked, or educators assume that students have a solid understanding of it. This series neatly explains why it is vital and demonstrates how it is possible to focus on vocabulary instruction that doesn’t take away from the conceptual lesson, but actually enhances it.” -- Julie Duford, Teacher
