Title:

Resources for Educators of English Language Learners: Elementary and Secondary Levels

Description:

The Immigrant Students and Secondary School Reform project formed a partnership with the Center for Applied Linguistics (CAL) to create a resource manual designed to improve delivery of educational services to English language learners enrolled in high schools undergoing reform. To help immigrant students through secondary school, schools need to commit to functioning as communities; building bridges to students’ families and to other organizations outside the school; providing students with information about the broader U.S. culture as well as the culture of the school; and developing curricula and instruction that incorporate students’ experiences, knowledge, and skills. This guide provides resources for teachers and administrators of English language learners at the secondary school level. Part One is comprised of resources specifically intended for grades 9-12. Part Two includes other resources for adult and K-12 learners that may be of interest to secondary school teachers and administrators. Included are print and online resources on ESL curricula and standards, classroom resources and instructional strategies, cultural orientation, and professional development.
