This concise resource provides innovative new strategies for supporting English learners in elementary classrooms. The authors delve into the social, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds of English learners in American schools, and describe how to teach to each student's strengths and background knowledge. Each chapter provides examples from real classrooms where first, third, and fifth grade teachers are working to serve students from a wide variety of backgrounds. Guided by up-to-date research on disciplinary literacy, these expert authors provide a meaningful guide to integrating best-practices for English learners across content areas - science, mathematics, and social studies - while fostering high levels of academic proficiency.

This book explores the conceptual framework, opportunities for learning, as a transaction between literacy learners, mediating agents, and the literacy content to be learned within social, cultural, and historical contexts. With contributions from top scholars from around the world, the chapters in this book provide a window into the varied ways learners, their families, educators, and researchers have co-constructed opportunities for learning in a range of PK-12 classrooms, community settings, and university classrooms across the globe. Building on decades of existing scholarship, contributors conceptualize literacy as social practice and discuss a variety of literacies—including engineering literacies, community literacies, and bilingual and multicultural literacies and more—through real-world and insightful examples. By situating literacy learning in the complex social, cultural, and historical contexts in which students, teachers, and families live and work, chapter authors provide nuanced, qualitative, and deeply profound views of literacy learning. Critical and informative, with a myriad of examples on co-constructed opportunities for learning, this volume is an essential text for graduate courses on literacy education, and for literacy researchers, teacher educators, and teachers.

Innovative Approaches to Literacy in Rural Contexts highlights and explicates innovative approaches to literacy that are currently underway in rural Wyoming public schools and provides applications of those approaches to other rural schools and districts. Each chapter addresses the unique rural contexts in which literacy work is being accomplished and describes how the rurality of that context impacts the nature of the project. With insights from teachers, literacy coaches, school principals, curriculum coordinators, and professors, this text explores context-specific case studies of modern literacy innovations in rural settings, their outcomes, the challenges posed by rurality, and the lessons gained from these experiences. The volume then demonstrates how these innovations can be applied to other rural settings and contexts. It combines research-based, theoretical perspectives with practical guidance, all aimed at fostering continuous improvement in literacy within rural public schools.Addressing multiple levels, from individual classrooms to statewide organizations, Innovative Approaches to Literacy in Rural Contexts will be essential reading for literacy and rural education graduate courses.
