Bilingual And Esl Classrooms Teaching In Multicultural Contexts

This classic text integrates theory and practice to provide comprehensive coverage of bilingual and ESL education. The text covers the foundations of bilingual and ESL education (who the students are, what the policies are and have been, the role and development of language and culture) and provides a strong focus on what the teacher needs to know in a bilingual classroom (such as instruction strategies, teaching in content areas, assessment, and working with students with special needs). Woven throughout the text are quotes from bilingual and ESL students and teachers that illuminate the bilingual/ESL learning and teaching experience.Ovando, Carlos Julio is the author of 'Bilingual And Esl Classrooms Teaching In Multicultural Contexts', published 2005 under ISBN 9780073126494 and ISBN 0073126497.
