This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dual-language text provides theory and methodology for teaching reading in Spanish to Spanish/English bilingual or Spanish-dominant students. The goal is to help educators teach these students the skills necessary to become proficient readers and, thus, successful in the school system. At the very core of the book are the hispano-parlantes--the Spanish-speaking children--who bring to the schools, along with their native language and cultures, a wealth of resources that must be tapped and to whom all educators have a responsibility to respond. True to the concepts of developing bilingual educators to serve bilingual students, the text presents chapters in English and Spanish. Each chapter is written in only one language at the preference of the author. Thus, to be successful with this book, the reader must be bilingual. Themes emphasized in the text include current reading methodologies, the concept of reading as developmental literacy skills, reading in the content areas, new views of the development of proficiency in the second language, issues related to students with special learning needs, assessment, and the uses of technology in the delivery of instruction. Never losing sight of its goal--to teach reading in Spanish to bilingual or Spanish-dominant students--the book includes a series of focusing questions and follow-up activities; these are not simply translations of existing activities, strategies, and techniques intended for monolingual English students, but specifically designed to be appropriate for Spanish-speaking students. Directed to university preservice and in-service instructors of reading and bilingual education as well as administrators and district- and school-level staff developers who work with Hispanic populations, the book is sensitive at all times to nuances of the languages and cultures of the intended audiences.

This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students whose first language is not English are the fastest-growing group in public schools in all regions of the United States. Almost 10 million children between the ages of five and 17 live in the homes and communities in which a language other than English in spoken and presently most schools in the U.S. are under-educating many English learners. The achievement of Hispanic students needs to improve dramatically over the next five years and this book describes the cornerstone elements for bringing about this change. The initial chapter introduces direct instruction to be used with reading and literacy programs. Chapters 2 and 3 provide excellent review of the literature in language development and address developing language instruction, listening, and speaking with Spanish-speaking students and offers what a comprehensive language development program should look like. Chapter 4 reviews academic language and literacy instruction while the next addresses the components of instruction in Spanish. Chapter 6 offers lesson plan suggestions for Spanish-speaking students, while the following two sections discuss components that transfer and do not transfer in Spanish to English reading instruction. Chapter 9 reviews English language development and provides lesson plans for implementing SDAIE programs. Finally, Chapter 10 discusses two-way bilingual immersion and shares actual classroom schedules and lessons. This unique text will help in the preparation of primary grade teachers throughout the U.S. so that they may be successful with Hispanic students entering the public schools with little or no English background. It will also be a useful tool for school districts’ staff development in addressing school improvement goals for increasing the achievement of Hispanic students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores the literacy abilities of Spanish-speaking bilingual children who are taught in English. They are a growing demographic, accounting for 9% of total enrollment in U.S. schools and 20% of enrollment in California. Their reading difficulties begin in pre-school and appear to persist throughout their academic careers. Literacy acquisition is crucial for both academic and career success. Bilingual children present an opportunity to study reading acquisition in a typically-developing child who comes from a non-monolingual language environment. In addition, this information can help guide educational policy to provide help where it is needed most. In order to identify areas of need, it is instructive to compare the bilingual children to their monolingual peers. These groups are compared not to belabor differences between them but to uncover areas that seem most vulnerable in the bilingual children. The monolingual children serve as a necessary reference point to gauge relative strengths and weaknesses in the bilingual children. Chapter 1 presents an overview of how reading and written expression develop in monolingual children, and how demographic and within- and cross-language factors affect this development. In Chapter 2, demographic and English language factors are explored in a cohort of 67 monolingual and 65 SEB bilingual from first through fourth grades. Chapter 3 is an examination of the impact of words that share form and meaning (i.e., train/tren) or form but not meaning (i.e., pan/pan, which means bread) cross-linguistically on single-word processing in the same cohort. Chapter 4 provides a detailed analysis of the written narrative abilities of a larger cohort of monolingual and bilingual children. In Chapter 5, implications of the results and future directions are discussed. This dissertation presents a comprehensive exploration of the reading and written expression abilities of bilingual children. The results suggest that demographic variables may be more important than linguistic ones in explaining the reading challenges in the bilingual group. They also serve to highlight areas of particular need in the linguistic profile of the bilingual children.

Download or read book What Teachers Need to Know About Language written by Carolyn Temple Adger and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising enrollments of students for whom English is not a first language mean that every teacher – whether teaching kindergarten or high school algebra – is a language teacher. This book explains what teachers need to know about language in order to be more effective in the classroom, and it shows how teacher education might help them gain that knowledge. It focuses especially on features of academic English and gives examples of the many aspects of teaching and learning to which language is key. This second edition reflects the now greatly expanded knowledge base about academic language and classroom discourse, and highlights the pivotal role that language plays in learning and schooling. The volume will be of interest to teachers, teacher educators, professional development specialists, administrators, and all those interested in helping to ensure student success in the classroom and beyond.
