Easy to read and tons of strategies gir ELL.

The book has well thought out designed chapters to meet a myriad of needs and us very easy to read and use. I may wear mine out soon from use. ... show more

Every Good Teacher Needs This Toolbox!!!
Format: Paperback
As a newer teacher in the field of ESL, I don't have my personal toolbox filled of strategies to help my kiddos. This book provides teachers, new and seasoned alike, with a multitude of strategies in the four domains. These strategies are kid tested and approved. Some were geared towards the older kids, but I found ways to adapt it to my younger students. This book gives you 45 instructional strategies, from book talks, interactive word walls, concept attainment and inductive learning to error correction, games, TPR, and differentiation. A big favorite too is the beginning and end of the year strategies. I've been implementing many strategies already with my kiddos and they've been very engaged (always tricky at the end of the school year!) This book is helpful to me as an ESL teacher, but I wish I had this when I was a classroom teacher for 8 years and had no idea what to do what a beginning English Learner was plopped in my class! I think any classroom teacher would benefit as well reading this, because let's face it - all students are language learners! For the techy teachers out there, the authors have included many links on each strategy as well as a chapter to tech in the classroom as well. Larry Ferlazzo has a great website too, which you should definitely visit!! ... show more

Speed and Quality
Format: Paperback
I love Amazon's service in delivering this book so quickly. I had it in my hands the next day and I placed the order at night. The book is very informative, detailed but simple enough to follow the recommendations provided. The ESL Team that I supervise will start a book study with this resource to maximize our time with students that would benefit from different strategies suggested in the book. Thanks for offering this "toolbox" for teachers of English Language Learners. I love that the research behind each strategy is presented individually in each section. It's an amazing collection for any teacher. Thank you! ... show more

It's BIG!
Format: Paperback
I have a love/hate relationship with the size of this book. It's great that it has lots of space in the margins and large font making it very easy to read, but it is certainly not portable. I would love for another edition to come out that's printed on thinner paper with smaller text. I could do without the "what could go wrong" section entirely. It would save a lot of space and lighten the book significantly. I think some minor tweaks to the general layout/structure of the chapters and this could be a perfect resource for all teachers of English learners. ... show more

Amazing
Format: Paperback
This toolbox is a life saver. The way the author explains each and mentioned how it can be aligned to CCSS is a plus. Every ELL and ESL or EFOL teacher should have this.

Awesome tool for all educators!
Format: Paperback
Toolbox is truly the perfect name for what this book is...I have loved being able to add new strategies to my repertoire as an ESL teacher, and the strategies also work great for regular classroom teachers, making this a tool for everyone. The ideas are simple, practical, and well thought out, making them extremely easy for teachers to implement with minimal prep work, and they are appropriate for students of all ages. I highly recommend this book, and hope you will find it as useful as I have! ... show more
