Infos

Every teacher is a language teacher, every student is a language learner, and every classroom needs a Language Lens. Sarah Ottow has spent 20 years helping schools and organizations develop a Language Lens-a cultural and linguistic responsiveness that improves the learning experience and achievement of every language learner. The Language Lens for Content Classrooms: A Guide for K-12 Educators of Academic and English Language Learners is the starting point for any general education or content teacher of:English Language Learners: students who are learning English as a second (or more!) language, and who may not speak English at home. Academic Language Learners: students who are learning the language necessary to access the curriculum-the nuanced language needed to process and apply content standards, skills, and knowledge that differ for every subject-who may or may not be ELLs. It doesn't matter if you teach Chemistry, Gym, or Language Arts; any student can be a language learner, so this guide is for every K-12 instructor who is looking to be more effective, inclusive, and responsive in their teaching.
