Download or read book Standards for the English Language Arts written by National Council of Teachers of English and published by National Council of Teachers of English (Ncte). This book was released on 1996 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes standards for the English language arts and defines what K-12 students should know about language and be able to do with language. The book presents the current consensus among literacy teachers and researchers about what students should learn in the English language arts--reading, writing, listening, speaking, viewing, and visually representing. The first chapter of the book (Setting Standards in the English Language Arts) addresses defining the standards and the need for standards. The second chapter (Perspectives Informing the English Language Arts Standards) discusses the content, purpose, development, and context of the standards. The third chapter presents the 12 standards in detail. The fourth chapter (Standards in the Classroom) presents elementary, middle-school, and high-school vignettes which illustrate how the standards might be implemented in the classroom. The book concludes that these standards represent not an end but a beginning--a starting point for discussion and action. A glossary (containing more than 100 terms), a list of participants, a history of the standards project, an overview of standards projects, state and international English language arts standards, a 115-item annotated list of resources for teachers, and a comment form are attached.

Download or read book Understanding English Language Variation in U S Schools written by Anne H. Charity Hudley and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2015-04-26 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s culturally diverse classrooms, students possess and use many culturally, ethnically, and regionally diverse English language varieties that may differ from standardized English. This book helps classroom teachers become attuned to these differences and offers practical strategies to support student achievement while fostering positive language attitudes in classrooms and beyond. The text contrasts standardized varieties of English with Southern, Appalachian, and African American English varieties, focusing on issues that are of everyday concern to those who are assessing the linguistic competence of students. Featuring a narrative style with teaching strategies and discussion questions, this practical resource: Provides a clear, introductory explanation of what is meant by non-standard English, from both linguistic and educational viewpoints. Emphasizes what educators needs to know about language variation in and outside of the classroom. Addresses the social factors accompanying English language variation and how those factors interact in real classrooms. “A landmark book. . . . It guides linguists and educators as we all work to apply our knowledge on behalf of those for whom it matters most: students.” —From the Afterword by Walt Wolfram, North Carolina State University “In the ongoing debate about language we typically hear arguments about what students say and/or how they say it. Finally, a volume that takes on the ‘elephant in the parlor’—WHO is saying it. By laying bare the complicated issues of race, culture, region, and ethnicity, Charity Hudley and Mallinson provide a scholarly significant and practically relevant text for scholars and practitioners alike. This is bound to be an important contribution to the literature.” —Gloria Ladson-Billings, University of Wisconsin–Madison “An invaluable guide for teachers, graduate students, and all lovers of language. The authors provide a comprehensive and fascinating account of Southern and African American English, showing how it differs from standardized English, how those differences affect children in the classroom, and how teachers can use these insights to better serve their students.” —Deborah Tannen, University Professor and professor of linguistics, Georgetown University

Download or read book Other People s English written by Vershawn Ashanti Young and published by Parlor Press LLC. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a new Foreword by April Baker-Bell and a new Preface by Vershawn Ashanti Young and Y’Shanda Young-Rivera, Other People’s English: Code-Meshing, Code-Switching, and African American Literacy presents an empirically grounded argument for a new approach to teaching writing to diverse students in the English language arts classroom. Responding to advocates of the “code-switching” approach, four uniquely qualified authors make the case for “code-meshing”—allowing students to use standard English, African American English, and other Englishes in formal academic writing and classroom discussions. This practical resource translates theory into a concrete road map for pre- and inservice teachers who wish to use code-meshing in the classroom to extend students’ abilities as writers and thinkers and to foster inclusiveness and creativity. The text provides activities and examples from middle and high school as well as college and addresses the question of how to advocate for code-meshing with skeptical administrators, parents, and students. Other People’s English provides a rationale for the social and educational value of code-meshing, including answers to frequently asked questions about language variation. It also includes teaching tips and action plans for professional development workshops that address cultural prejudices.
Download or read book Language Arts to Communication Arts written by Robert Wolsch and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To assure literacy, we must end individual teacher and departmental deferments and muster all school and college personnel into an all-out bloodless, professional revolution against illiteracy. Now is the time for a thorough review of all educational objectives, strategies, and tactics for preparing and supporting our front line troops classroom teachers. Language Arts to Communication Arts: Reorganizing for Tomorrow's Literacy provides directions and sounds, "all hands to battle stations!" Robert and Lois Wolsch have been pioneers in bringing interpersonal communication, the speech arts, and phonological awareness into the teaching of language arts and curriculum development. Their recommendations fill the void in education which neglects to address speaking, listening, and sociolinguistic skills. Their previous books, The Poetic Language of Children, Poetic Composition Through The Grades, From Speaking to Writing to Reading, Literacy Assured, and Showing You Know and their workshops throughout the country, have had excellent reviews from experienced teachers, gallant administrators, enlightened parents, and professional organizations. The National Council of Teachers of English recommended Poetic Composition Through the Grades for all school libraries. Combining their four decades of teaching, supervision, and curriculum development, from K-graduate school, the Wolsch's have been speakers and workshop leaders championing the need for more up-to-date preparation of teachers in listening, the speech & media arts, sociolinguistics for reading and language arts across the curriculum. With their new four book Literacy Assured Series, they help to bring their insights into more homes, classrooms, consultations, committees, and curriculum councils. They identify today's concerns about children's language, particularly for children from oral cultures, provide workable solutions, and issue an invitation to all of us to discuss America's major educational issues.
