Academic Language in Diverse Classrooms: Definitions and Contexts

Academic Language in Diverse Classrooms: Definitions and Contexts
Ensure your school speaks the language of success!Â

Since the introduction of the Common Core, schools realize the necessity for a deep understanding of academic language as a stepping stone to academic achievement. The expectations for more robust curriculum, instruction, and assessment require administrators, teachers, and students to retool for academic success.

This companion volume to Margo Gottlieb and Gisela Ernst-Slavitâ€™s six-book series on academic language provides a thorough overview of key concepts and effective practices. Optimized for curricular planning and in-classroom reference, with particular attention to linguistically and culturally diverse students, the book includes:
- Definitions and examples of the dimensions of academic language.
- A step-by-step template for teachers to incorporate academic language into their planning for student learning.
- Graphic models that illustrate academic language use across the content areas.
