A Kaleidoscope of Models And Strategies for

Written by teachers for teachers, this is a practical introduction to models and strategies employed in the teaching of English language learners.

The book is written to be of immediate use to classroom teachers but will also be valuable as a supplementary textbook. All methods discussed are currently being taught in Norland's classes and implemented through the student teaching program at Luther College. Strategies include: Grammar-based Approaches, The Silent Way, Experiential Language Learning, Literature-based Approach, Family Literacy, and many more. Grades K-12.
