Do your students have great ideas, but have trouble expressing them without using colloquialisms or language at a level that is inappropriate for the classroom? This well-researched book provides you with the tools to strengthen your students’ vocabulary skills by building the academic language they need to succeed. By using the outlined techniques, you will be able to build on students’ existing way of learning and prepare them to speak and write at the language level expected of them in school.
