How to Reach & Teach English Language Learners will provide strategies and tools for assessing and teaching English Language Learners, and will provide educators with the research around using formative assessments with ELLs. Included will be assessment models and measures that are classroom-tested and found to be effective with ELL students. The book will illustrate how to use these by offering success stories from real-world classrooms. Currently, there are very few practical assessment resources for teachers. Educators need resources that are easy to use with practical ideas that can be easily implemented. Most of the comparable books on the market offer an approach that is time-intensive and complicated, making it hard for teachers to implement. By contrast, this book will offer practical, ready-to-use strategies that are firmly rooted in the latest research.
