This review is mainly for how I received the product.The content may be good. However, I paid full price for a new book. I received a scratched and slightly tattered book. This should have been better packaged. I am disappointed in the state of arrival. I'm considering returning.I could have paid for "used " and receives the book in similar conditions.Content does seem useful and good.

No está mal. No era como esperaba, ni daba tantas ideas como parecía, es más bien para la reflexión y que cada uno aplique como quiera.

I'm a new ESL teacher and this is the FIRST ESL resource book I've come across that aligns with the teaching methodology I'm learning in Graduate School and actually makes sense. I'm about halfway through at this point and the insight I've gained thus fair is invaluable. I can't get through a single page without highlighting the hell out of key points and making notes in the margins. This book is a must if you're teaching ESL, especially in a school system, although the strategies and tactics can be applied to adults as well.

This book looked as though it would be great for a room full of students, but it was impractical for me, because I am only teaching a single person. If you are an educated, degreed teacher in a classroom, then this book will most likely be very helpful to you. Even though it wasn't a fit for me, I was still able to pull some useful ideas.

This books shows that this is for upper grades. I bought it for my 1st grade ELL/ELD class because there was nothing listed for elementary. I use many of the suggested tech places listed. The information provided is very valuable and useful for my elementary class. I highly recommend this book for any grade level. Awesome resource!

This is the best resource book I've got for teaching ESL. Even though it's written for secondary school, I find I can use a lot of the ideas, as they are researched and tested in classrooms. Want to improve your own teaching and the learning environment in your classroom? Want to foster an environment of active learning in the classroom? Get this book and begin implementing a lot of the learning activities. You won't be disappointed.

The books is exactly how it was described. I have been looking for something to use and be a little guide and this book is that. It is full of things I have done and more ideas for me to implement in the future.

First impression: I like the larger, easy-to-read font choice. Thank you!So far, the "I am" Project (page 21), Chapter 3, pages 198, 199, Chapter 11 = are those that have the most penciled in margin notes and/or post-it reference tabs.It is one of those books that even a very experienced ESL / ESOL / ELL / EFL (whatever acronym you use) teacher/facilitator will be likely to find useful to review, even if just to be reminded of a few tricks that she or he has not used in awhile, to become more aware of research supporting the "why we do and try to do what we do and try to do."As someone who has been a fan of Larry Ferlazzo and his prolific blogging and tweeting for years, I felt I owed it to him -- and to visitors to my bookshelves -- to purchase a copy of this text. As an adult ELL educator, even though the book is marked for Grades 4 -12, many chapters and much of the information has relevancy.This is a text that is not likely to overwhelm newbies and/or classroom volunteers -- a quick flip-though may well lead to a careful reading of the Contents pages, and then to self-selected study.The Afterword is well chosen.The Notes section will make you wish for access to a hyper-linked copy of same!This is a great text to have near you while lesson-planning, at hand during peer-to-peer / staff committee meetings, a text to revisit frequently.Holly

I think this really is a survival guide for ESL/ELL teachers. So much care was taken to design the book so any busy teacher could find help and inspiration easily. I would recommend this for any teacher who has one or many children in her class who speak different home languages. The strategies and activities are valid, valuable and easy to use.
