The author proves that by beginning with the literacy knowledge students bring from their native language and putting writing at the center of the curriculum, we can help them make a smoother transition to English while we support their academic literacy. With Writing Between Languages, you'll learn to: understand the crucial and helpful role native literacy plays in building written English fluency; assess where English learners--including beginners--are in their development as writers; use code-switching and movement between languages to scaffold transitional writing--no matter whether you know a student's home language; implement instructional strategies to support development in writing and other literacy and language skills in meaningful contexts.
