2nd Edition
Written for the way most teachers read—on the run, in search of a particular solution—the second edition of The English Teacher's Companion retains the original's highly structured format with a new, more open design for ease of use. Chapters are clearly subdivided; lessons are presented step-by-step; and assessment is integrated throughout. Outstanding new features include:
- increased emphasis on theoretical foundations
- completely revised major curriculum areas, especially reading and writing
- changes that reflect the latest use of technology in the classroom
- updated recommendations for the latest resources
- improved alignment with the latest standards and assessments
sample instructional sequences to show how a complete unit looks
- new instructional design and planning tools
- expanded strategies for helping English language learners
