| Book Description | Bringing together the varied and multifaceted expertise of teachers and linguists in one accessible volume, this book presents practical tools, grounded in cutting-edge research, for teaching about language and language diversity in the ELA classroom. By demonstrating practical ways teachers can implement research-driven linguistic concepts in their own teaching environment, each chapter offers real-world lessons as well as clear methods for instructing students on the diversity of language. Written for pre-service and in-service teachers, this book includes easy-to-use lesson plans, pedagogical strategies and activities, as well as a wealth of resources carefully designed to optimize student comprehension of language variation. |
| Editorial Review | "One of the things I love about this volume is that the classroom approaches and activities engage students' curiosity about the language they see and hear around them, as well as the language they encounter in literature...This volume is a gem because it has experienced secondary teachers and linguists in conversation about how to teach in a linguistically informed and engaging way... Linguists have much to learn from these essays about how to make linguistics more accessible for K-12 classrooms and how to design introductory linguistics courses to be more helpful for teachers in training. And secondary teachers (as well as teachers of younger students) can find information here that may inspire them to experiment with new approaches in their classrooms as early as tomorrow, because experienced teachers are laying out in detail how to do so-and why." - From the Foreword by Anne Curzan, University of Michigan, USA |
