Practical Activities for ESL Students

A practical 'how to' resource for primary teachers who have ESL students in their classrooms. It helps teachers to adapt typical classroom learning experiences, and allows students to be more fully immersed in the language models of their peers, while at the same time learning critical English content. It shows students how to learn the key words, phrases and ideas associated with school life, home life and the important business of getting along with others and fitting in.
