By A Customer
This review is from: Learning Strategies Handbook (Paperback)
If you are interested in teaching your students not only ESL, but how to learn, this book is for you. Based on the CALLA method to teaching (as described in Ana Chamot's Calla Handbook) the concept behind this text is to show how to teach students various strategies on how to become better learners and improve memory. With these skills, students are more apt to use higher order thinking skills in the classroom. In this particular book, you will find out how to implement the CALLA system step by step; there are all sorts of charts and reproducible forms for students and teachers to use.
