and engaging voice, supported by its many resources, will help future
and in-service teachers bring the language arts to life in their own
classrooms.
This book helps readers envision their future classrooms, including the
role technology will play, as they prepare to be successful teachers.
Comprehensively updated, the second edition addresses new demands on
teaching in traditional and virtual ELA classrooms, and the new ways
technology facilitates effective instructional practices. Organized
around the receptive language arts--the way learners receive
information--and the expressive language arts--the way leaners express
ideas--chapters cover all aspects of language arts instruction,
including new information on planning and assessment; teaching reading
and writing fundamentals; supporting ELLs, dyslexic, and dysgraphic
learners; using digital tools; and more. In every chapter, readers can
explore a rich array of teaching tools and experiences, which allow
readers to learn from real-world classrooms.
