"This text brings together the work of 15 elementary education experts who support an integrative approach to educating second language children. The paperback edition is a collection of articles from fourteen elementary education experts who espouse an integrative approach to second language education - one that goes beyond language teaching methodology - to cover a wide range of issues affecting the academic and social success of language minority children. The volume deals not only with second language development, but with the development of the whole child. Rather than focusing on language instruction, it addresses the entire curriculum, and instead of restricting itself to classroom learning, it examines the role of the school, family, and community. First Cambridge text to cover second language education for children. Goes beyond language teaching methodology to address the social and educational needs of second language children. Takes a holistic approach to second language education. Provides solid, research-based treatments of language education issues" (Publisher's Website)
