Here's the resource you need to combine middle and high school science content with down-to-earth help for emergent multilingual learners-students learning science as well as English. Based on solid research findings, this book shows you how to put into practice the 5R Instructional Model: Replace, Reveal, Repeat, Reposition, and Reload. The model provides a framework for creating instructional strategies that offer authentic language-learning opportunities within your inquiry-based science classroom. Supporting Emergent Multilingual Learners in Science starts with useful context about the need for a special approach to integrating science and language. Then it moves from theory to practice by focusing on each of the five Rs and showing how they play out in particular scenarios. Finally, a chapter called "Voices From Teachers" lets you learn from colleagues who've used the 5R model as a tool to develop science lessons in actual classrooms. The authors of Supporting Emergent Multilingual Learners in Science have diverse backgrounds in science, mathematics, and bilingual education. Drawing on the overlap they've discovered among these areas, they show how you can reduce conflicts and enhance connections between inquiry teaching and language instruction.
