"...offers educators a five-step method for teaching this burgeoning [ELL] population...the five principles around which the process revolves are: building relationships, assessing prior knowledge through student stories, developing student leadership, learning by doing, and reflection...In addition to providing detailed lessons, the book shares a framework teachers can use to create their own lessons, and it shows how to take advantage of technology and games as teaching tools. References to extensive research studies are included...and each lesson is linked to state standards in English language development." -- taken from back cover.
