Teaching the World's Children: ESL for Ages Three to Seven (The Pippin Teacher's Library)

The language that young children use is the language they learn. This practical primer explains how early childhood educators and primary teachers can support the efforts of non-English speaking children in nursery schools, day-care centres and classrooms to use -and learn - English as a second language. Featuring ideas and advice from two ESL teachers, it is a guide to developing a sensitive, welcoming start for all the world's children.
