Christina Celic s foundational guide provides an authentic and meaningful answer to the question, How can I teach the grade-level curriculum in a way that makes my English language learners successful? Clear, informative, and authoritative, English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6 shows you what best practices look like on a day-to-day basis, starting day one. The first chapters guide you through the process of:
setting up a classroom that supports English language learners in learning language and content
launching appropriate instruction and assessment during the first days of school
establishing schedules, routines, rules, and procedures sensitive to English language learners
Ensuing chapters help you understand how to:
integrate literacy and content-area instruction during the school year
teach academic language throughout the curriculum
differentiate instruction to meet the individual needs of English language learners

English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6 recognizes the challenges teachers face when working with English language learners, and responds with realistic and practical solutions. Drawing on a rich blend of research findings and classroom experiences, this bible on ELL instruction will help mainstream and preservice teachers, as well as ESL and bilingual specialists, better understand how they can make their classrooms a place where English language learners thrive.

"My hope is that this book provides you with a practical foundation for addressing your own English language learners academic and linguistic needs, transforming your classroom into a place where they re successful, motivated, and confident in their abilities.
Christina Celic

Editorial Reviews

About the Author

English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6 grew out of Christina Celic's classroom experience as an ESL and bilingual teacher in New York and Illinois and as a staff developer in New York City, New York and Sao Paulo, Brazil. The more she worked with bilingual, ESL, and mainstream teachers in grades K-6, the more she found she wasn't the only one grappling with the task of teaching language and the grade level curriculum. In writing this book Christina shares the specific teaching practices she has found successful with her English language learners. Christina holds an MA in Bilingual/Bicultural Education from Teachers College Columbia University.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource for ESL teachers and more, October 31, 2009
By 
Topper (Nations Capital/USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6: A Complete Guide to Literacy, Content-Area, and Language Instruction (Paperback)
Thank goodness for this resource! The book is a practical guide for ESL teachers, as well as all teachers, who have wondered for years how to teach the student who is a new English language learner. Celic combines all the research-based, best practices that immerse new English learners in language, vocabulary, background knowledge and make them strategic learners. I especially love the chapter on developing academic language. So many ELL students develop social language and sound like they should be good students, but have not developed the academic language they need to be those successful learners. ESL teachers can take this resource and use it immediately. However, it's a resource that all teachers can use. The strategies are simply good teaching and apply as much to all students as to the ELL student. A great find!!! maryland teacher

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Strategies for Developing Academic Language, February 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6: A Complete Guide to Literacy, Content-Area, and Language Instruction (Paperback)
Beyond presenting an array of classroom management techniques, Celic doesn't just tell but shows how to develop academic language and content-specific concepts through literacy. She presents theory and shows exactly how to apply it in the classroom with many examples across all content areas. I learned so much from the everyday snapshots of her classroom. She also offers valuable advice on how to assess and track students' linguistic progress throughout the year. A wonderful resource for ESL and bilingual teachers!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have for Any Teacher, October 28, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: English Language Learners Day by Day, K-6: A Complete Guide to Literacy, Content-Area, and Language Instruction (Paperback)
This is a practical, step by step guide for any teacher-new or seasoned. I loved the honest look at the hurdles a teacher of English Language Learners must overcome. I throughly enjoyed the various types of assessment and examples of her own work to see how it could be done. It easy to read one of Celic's strategies and go into my classroom the next day and use it right away. I highly recommend this to any teacher, even if you do not have English Language Learners. This can even be used for your lower level students.
