"A long-awaited resource, English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) Teaching and Learning: Pre-K-12 Classroom Applications for Students' Academic Achievement & Development provides the most current, research-based, and high-quality pedagogical and assessment approaches and strategies that respond to current federal policy and high-stakes national and professional standards, and that can effectively increase academic achievement in at-risk English language learners." "With an innovative approach, well-respected authors Virginia Gonzalez, Thomas Yawkey, and Liliana Minaya-Rowe use parallels between ESL, sociocultural, sociohistorical, socioeconomic, and educational backgrounds of former eastern and southern European immigrants during the Ellis Island years to persuade current teachers to become committed advocates for contemporary ESL Hispanic and Asian immigrant students."--BOOK JACKET.
