This is an excellent resource for public school administrators. Today's public schools are brimming with students who are not only new to English but who also have no schooling or a large break in their schooling. These students create unique challenges for teachers and administrators. This handbook is a welcome new resource for secondary teachers and administrators working in areas with burgeoning immigrant populations, as well as ESL instructors and researchers. The text addresses some of the many issues facing the subpopulation of ELLs who have limited or interrupted formal schooling, helping dedicated teachers to meet this subpopulation's highly specific literacy development and content-area knowledge needs. Although grounded in research, "Meeting the Needs of Students with Limited or Interrupted Schooling" goes beyond research to offer teachers practical guidance on fostering the success of students from limited or interrupted schooling backgrounds by providing student case studies, model programs and classes, and helpful teaching techniques and tips.
