PE1128 .A2 R454 2002Book bridges for ESL students : using young adult and children's literature to teach ESL
Reid, Suzanne Elizabeth.
CHOICE Review:
Reid (Emory and Henry College) presents book titles and activity suggestions for teaching English as a second language. She covers the basics, picture books, reading and literature, history, science, mathematics, multicultural (mainly non-English) classes, and special populations from children to adults. The author critiques each book title, giving information on how the book might be useful and commenting on language level and illustrations. This makes her volume practical for busy classroom teachers. The book includes a bibliography of picture books, resources for teaching history, math, and science, and on multicultural themes, when most students in the class do not speak English and for special populations, along with a separate annotated bibliography of resources for teachers. All of these make the book easy to use. This practical book is recommended for professionals/practitioners and students preparing to become ESL teachers. From: Syndetics Solutions, Inc.
