ReviewsFinally, a comprehensive and beautifully written guide to teaching bilingually. Full of creative strategies, practical mentoring, and well-chosen vignettes, this book is destined to become the standard text in bilingual methods courses., I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the authors worked in very practical suggestions for teachers. As it was an easy read, I moved through the chapters with a sense of centeredness in relation to their philosophical stance and their openness in relation to the practical suggestions mediated by the different languages and program contexts teachers face. The essential questions emerging from the field of multilingualism in education guide this truly intellectually bounded, teacher-oriented text on instruction in more than one language. It is a useful book for all teachers faced with bilingual learners., The essential questions emerging from the field of multilingualism in education guide this truly intellectual, teacher-oriented text on instruction in more than one language., Speaking directly to bilingual teachers, Reyes, Kleyn, and their contributors deliver a passionate, practical, and loving approach to teaching children whose first language is other than English. This book will be a source of both inspiration and practical strategies for those who are educating our newest emergent bilingual citizens.
