Collecting, analyzing and using various data points are key to supporting positive outcomes that center on the unique needs of multilingual students. Staehr Fenner, Snyder and Gregoire-Smith provide data ready resources that can be easily embedded across content areas and into instructional practices. The strategies highlighted in this edition help teachers afford more opportunities for students, especially newcomers and SLIFE, to practice, collect, reflect and analyze their own learning experiences., As part of the Title III English Learner Support Grant through the Ohio Department of Education, Painesville City Local Schools worked through the Unlocking text with their EL Department. Professional learning sessions were led by SupportEd and covered vocabulary development, scaffolding, academic and oral language development, building background knowledge and formative assessments. The content in Unlockingprovided easy to understand examples, scenarios, and suggestions. In addition the text encouraged staff discussion and collaboration on implementation ideas. The material not only aligned to the goals of the grant, but the SupportEd team also went above and beyond to align their materials and instruction with other district initiatives for general instructional frameworks. Of all of the professional development series I have been a part of in my twenty years in education, SupportEd was by far the most well-organized, informative series. Their team was overly accommodating of the day to day struggle of districts and flexible in their planning and delivery to ensure the district was provided with the support and learning opportunities they needed as well as requested. I would highly recommend their team and their materials to any district or school looking to improve their EL instructional knowledge and skill sets., This second edition of Unlocking Multilingual Learners' Potential: Strategies for Making Content Accessible should be in the hands of new and veteran educators. As its predecessor, the authors draw from current research and practice and brilliantly present a user-friendly guide for supporting students' success. Look no further if you are seeking a professional book to support our ever-changing multlingual learners to work, collaborate, and flourish together., "Every K-12 teacher needs to be effective with multilingual learners. This practical, asset-oriented book that helps teachers put theory into action to unlock MLs' potential!" -- Tonya Ward Singer, Author & Founder "Collecting, analyzing and using various data points are key to supporting positive outcomes that center on the unique needs of multilingual students.
