<p>This teacher-friendly and practical resource provides 42 specific strategies that teachers in all content areas can use to help learners grasp the intended meaning. The strategies range from quick and easy ways to assist students with content vocabulary as instruction is ongoing, to more comprehensive strategies that are important lessons in themselves. Some strategies are particularly effective with English Language Learners as well as other students who may have reading difficulties. Far more than best means of teaching specific words, these strategies will tap students' curiosity, engage and empower them, develop their critical thinking skills, and help them make connections.</p>
