Supporting K-12 English Language Learners in Science: Putting Research into Teaching Practice

Presenting three systematic, ongoing research and professional learning projects for supporting English learners in science, this book synthesizes their common themes and highlights unique features, findings, and lessons learned. Based in a different region of the U.S. and focused on different target populations, each project actively grapples with the linguistic implications of the three-dimensional learning required by the Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards.
