Develop students' understanding of academic language and watch literacy skills soar!

To achieve higher levels of learning, students must be able to understand academic language-the formalized language of instruction found in classrooms, textbooks, and standardized tests. Eli R Johnson conveys a powerful message of the need for teachers to provide explicit academic language instruction for all students, especially English language learners or those struggling with reading.

Filled with 36 hands-on strategies, this practical, solidly researched guide helps teachers make the critical connection between academic language, literacy, and student achievement for all learners, regardless of home language or socioeconomic status. Explained in reader-friendly terms, each strategy helps teachers give their students the tools and skills necessary to decipher academic language in reading, writing, listening, and speaking. This Key Stage 1 to 'A' Level book also includes

- A strategy matrix to help teachers select appropriate strategies for their grade level

- A description of each strategy, with information on how it works in the classroom and why it is effective

- Collaborative protocols to help infuse academic language throughout the content areas

- Lists of words that can be introduced at each grade level to build students' vocabulary

Academic Language! Academic Literacy! helps teachers instruct students on the language of education so they have a chance to demonstrate what they know and experience success.
