New hope for our students who struggle most

Under the best of circumstances meeting the Common Core can be a challenge. But if you're a teacher of academically and linguistically diverse students--and who isn't these days--then that challenge may sometimes feel more like a fantasy. Finally, here are two expert educators who are brave enough, knowledgeable enough, and grounded enough to tackle this issue.

Armed with this resource's advice, tools, and strategies, you'll

  • Better understand the 32 ELA anchor standards
  • Learn more about the specific skills uncommon learners need to master them
  • Discover new research-based teaching strategies aligned to each standard
