{"product_id":"9781412955492","title":"Promoting Academic Achievement Among English Learners","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe growing numbers of English language learners (ELLs) in our schools pose increasing challenges and opportunities for U.S. educators and policy makers. A generation or two ago, the achievement of children who came to school knowing little or no English was not a prominent national issue. Today it is.      This comprehensive resource explores the research on promoting academic success among ELLs. It provides educators with a firm basis for making decisions related to adopting or developing effective policies and programmes for ELLs.      Promoting Academic Achievement Among English Learners provides illustrative scenarios throughout to accompany research-based discussions about:       - What we know about using ELLs' home language in their academic programme and findings about bilingual education    - ELLs learning to speak English and simultaneously learning academic content, a vital aspect of their educational agenda    - School- and district-level factors that affect ELLs' achievement    - Sociocultural factors, including the influence of parents and families    - A broad framework for improving the academic achievement of students who come to school not speaking English well or not speaking English at all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CORWIN PRESS INC.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43415100129325,"sku":"9781412955492","price":80.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/1298\/2317\/files\/9781412955492.jpg?v=1782633785","url":"https:\/\/lioncrest.com.au\/products\/9781412955492","provider":"Woodslane Education","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
