    Showing of 7 reviews. Top Reviews Most recent Top Reviews. There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later. As a first grade teacher and a candidate for a TESOL Masters, this book was an excellent resource for me in both capacities. I feel that I am now armed with new resources and specific strategies that will help me to work with a wide variety of learners. This book gives a great overview of academic discourse and goes in depth to discuss how to foster it within the classroom. As I head into a new school year with my young students, I am excited to build an environment in which I understand how to encourage discussion among students and how to guide academic conversations.

    I highly recommend this book as a resource for your professional resource library. I needed more research on ESOL. This work on techniques and methods for ESOL students and our means to produce sustainable and meaningful talking points is sound.

    I already knew all of this, but when presenting trainings, this text presents the material well. No more turn and talk for ELs who are beginning! Hate what 'all" teachers do for 'all' students 'all' the time. When is differentiation really going to hit home? If you need a text to help you show, simply, a set of methods to deliver accountable talk to ELs and "all" students, I felt this was sound and targeted.

    Excellent strategies and case studies!
