Theory blends with practice to give readers the tools they need support English language literacy development with their students in addition to the program the school has in place.

Included are strategies for converting research into practical application; illustrative student samples from multiple grade levels and language backgrounds; teacher insights; a look at the sociocultural, academic, cognitive, and linguistic dimensions of the ELL student biography; and a number of helpful pedagogical aids.
