From EAL experts Chris Pim and Catharine Driver come 100 ideas for providing secondary teachers with strategies and activities to support the induction, assessment and learning of students with English as an additional language (EAL) in tutor time, in specific subjects and at whole-school level. There is so much pressure on teachers to deliver engaging and innovative lessons that both adhere to the demands of the curriculum and get the necessary results. Having to plan lessons, implement strategies and create effective resources for EAL students can be a challenge, and with over 15% of secondary school students exposed to a language other than English in their home (according to 2016 data from the Department for Education), it is a challenge affecting every teacher. This book provides practical plans for giving EAL learners general support, but also includes ideas linked to specific subjects, especially key problem areas such as mathematics and science, to help EAL learners get the most out of lessons. 100 Ideas for Secondary Supporting EAL Learners is a treasure trove of adaptable ideas to use for students who are beginners and advanced learners of EAL.

A practical book of ideas and support strategies for the induction, assessment, teaching and learning of students with English as an additional language (EAL). It includes ideas such as: setting up a parent conference; identifying and supporting G&T; learners; cross-cultural mathematics; and, questioning techniques.

This engaging and informative book is written to help you to cater for the needs of pupils learning English as an additional language (EAL). It will support all primary-phase practitioners, including staff working with pupils learning EAL, key staff working on ethnic minority achievement, governors with specific responsibility for inclusion, and student teachers working towards Qualified Teaching Status. This book includes sections that will help you dispel the myths surrounding effective provision for pupils learning EAL; support whole-school approaches for ethnic minority achievement; use research about bilingualism to inform best practice for beginner and advanced bilingual learners; and, develop appropriate and targeted interventions for EAL learners. While good practice for ethnic minority achievement is clearly about quality-first teaching, this book explains that there is something distinctive about the needs of EAL learners and offers a range of practical ideas and strategies to support this area of work. Ethnic, linguistic and cultural diversity should be recognised as an asset to be respected and celebrated. This book will help you to achieve this. This title contains 64 A4 pages.
