Language Development in Science Classrooms

This book explores the potential and problems that secondary school science provides for multilingual students and their monolingual classmates.

The book sets out the research basis for a modest teaching strategy which has proved helpful in real classrooms. It models that strategy and provides blackline masters which teachers can modify for their own use.

Language Development in Science Classrooms is written by a practising teacher with many years of experience in classroom, laboratory and field.
