Much Needed Idea Source

I am a sixth grade teacher and I bought this book when several non-English speaking students were placed in my classroom. I use the book constantly. It is filled with ideas for helping ESL students become part of the class instead of outcasts. The "interview" idea really helped break the ice and introduce the new kids to the rest of the class. I am now using ideas from the book to tutor several students during the summer. A wonderful book, easy to read, easy to follow, and practical.
