This book is an excellent tool for teachers seeking to improve their instructional practices. It is also a very useful tool for teacher trainers who wish to help educators in the process of reaching English Language learners (ELLs). It explains how effective teachers can reach ELLs. Although short, every page is worth reading.
There is a lot of info. in this book. I took the CLAD exam 7 years ago and remember a lot of the same content. This book goes a step farther than theory and has real-life senerios with a focus on different cultures/children learning English. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about teaching English Language Learners.
This book is well rounded, easy to read, and sythesizes nicely with other Education program content and modern practices. After I returned my rental, I bought it again to have for reference and inspiration.
The content is great, and the organization of the book is good. However, I am not happy that the video links don't work, nor is there a website address to view them. This appears to be essential content that is not available to Kindle for PC readers.
Easy to read pages that are low glare. While its a textbook it is not so technical that it can't be understood easily. Lots of info into nine chapters and only weighs about a 8 ozs. not heavy at all and not very thick, maybe 250 pages at best.
This was required content for my teacher preparation - it closely resembles my own experience of best practices as both a language learner and a language teacher. I have TESOL training that is more hands-on, concrete - what activities to use, how to structure lessons - which I feel better prepares teachers for all manner of instruction. I think this is a good starting point but I would urge teachers to go farther and learn more and become students themselves to understand why and how it works.
The text is very good, but this version doesn't have the Pearson ebook links. I am not a fan of nonfiction books on computers but you should probably spend the extra $6 and get the version that includes the links to about 15 videos. I blame Pearson for requiring this additional cost; isn't $40 enough? Seriously. Some of the content relies on the video, such as "Watch this video of content area strategy instruction." The ISBN for that version is 0133831612.
If you are looking for a book that simply and clearly explains Sheltered instruction, this is the book. Much of it is nothing new, but if you are a beginning teacher, teacher educator, or professional development person, this book is good starting point.
