Full Description
This book provides strong, diverse context that supports educators in driving theory to practice when engaging with English Language Learners. It unpacks where these students have been, where they are, but more importantly, where they can go when educators have cultivated the desperately needed knowledge, skillsets, and dispositions for advancing equity for this group of learners.
