The ESL/ELL Teacher's Book of Lists - 9780470222676

Kress' (education, Georgian Court U., Lakewood, New Jersey) resource text offers 130 practical lists that can be reproduced for classroom use or referred to in the development of instructional materials and lessons for English language learners (ELLs). The text was written for general education teachers, ESL teachers, special educators, English language arts instructors, reading and language tutors, and adult education instructors to help them reinforce and enhance the learning of grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and writing skills by ESL students of all abilities. The lists are grouped into ten sections: getting started, core English, pronunciation, vocabulary builders, grammar, content area words, culture, teaching, assessment, and helpful resources and references. The second edition of the text contains updated and expanded versions of the original lists, plus forty completely new ones. Each list begins with a brief introduction providing background and teaching suggestions. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
