Summary:This book shows teachers how to build on students' existing knowledge (Community English) to add new knowledge (Academic English). The authors show how to lead students in discovery learning of grammar and how to lead students to code-switch, to choose the language style to fit the setting. Teachers learn to build on students' linguistic strengths and add Standard English to students' linguistic toolkits.--[book cover]
