Languages and Children is packed with a wealth of strategies and activities ready to use in the K-8 foreign language classroom, this guide is an ideal resource for teachers, supervisors, and planners–a true contribution to the number and quality of language programs. Both a methods text and a practical guide for schools and teachers, itis designed to help those preparing to teach languages, especially at the elementary and middle school levels (grades K-8); practitioners already involved with language teaching; and teachers, parents, and administrators engaged in the planning or evaluation process. In it the authors include the theoretical and practical elements that have been important in their own classroom practice. Intended as an entry level resource that will help new teachers orient themselves to what is important and available in the profession, the book is based on scholarship, yet not written by practitioners with practitioners in mind. Popular, accessible, and engaging, Languages and Children is a classic in the field.
