Product Review

This comprehensive textbook prepares all teachers to teach English language
learners (ELLs). It is widely used in undergraduate and graduate programs, including:

- Elementary and secondary teacher education
- Literacy and special education
- TESOL and bilingual education

Wayne Wright's deep respect for educational practitioners and his passion for English
language learners' right to a fair and full education are evident in every word he writes. His
book and companion website offer a vision and pathway toward fostering dynamic learning
communities across schools, teacher education programs, and communities to improve
education for ELLs. The rest is up to us.
