This hands-on book offers teachers a much-needed resource that will help maximize learning for English Language Learners (ELLs). How to Teach English Language Learners draws on two wide-ranging teacher quality studies and profiles eight educators who have achieved exceptional results with their ELL students. Through highly readable portraits, the authors take readers into these teachers' classrooms, illustrating richly what it is they do differently that yields such great results from English learners. Because most teachers profiled work within a three-tiered Response-to-Intervention framework, the book shows how to implement RTI effectively with ELLs―from providing general reading instruction for the entire classroom to targeted interventions with struggling students. Written by noted ELL educators Diane Haager, Janette K. Klingner, and Terese Aceves, How to Teach English Language Learners is filled with inspiring success stories, teaching tips, activities, discussion questions, and reflections from these outstanding teachers.

Why Are So Many Minority Students in Special Education?: Understanding Race & Disability in Schools

This powerful book examines the disproportionate placement of Black and Hispanic students in special education. The authors present compelling stories representing the range of experiences that culturally and linguistically diverse students are apt to face in school. They examine the childrenÂ’s experiences, their familiesÂ’ interactions with school personnel, the teachersÂ’ and schoolsÂ’ estimation of the children and their families, and the school climate that influences decisions about referrals. Based on the authorsÂ’ work in a large, culturally diverse school district, the book concludes with recommendations for improving educational practice and teacher training and for policy renewal. 
Features: * Examples that reveal how social processes and stereotypical expectations often lead to an inaccurate designation of disability. * Real-life portraits showing that "risk" exists in schools, not only in families and communities. * Recommendations for improving the placement process, including provisions based on a demonstrated need, rather than on a disability classification.
