Abstract:	There are increasing numbers of children with little or no English entering English speaking mainstream lessons. This often leaves them with unique frustrations due to limited English language proficiency and disorientation. Teachers often feel unable to cater sufficiently for these new arrivals. "Teaching English as an Additional Language Ages 5-11" is designed to support every 5-11 year old child new to the English language who is beginning their education in an English speaking mainstream curriculum. It provides teachers with the tools needed to support young learners' survival language needs and help them achieve a smooth transition into their new learning environment. Packed full of advice, guidance, resources and support for teachers managing beginners to the English language in the mainstream English speaking school, it also includes: (1) 68 flexible sessions for children to learn survival language--sessions are based on assessment for learning and can be adapted easily into weekly lesson plans; (2) A DVD to support each session containing visuals of commonly used vocabulary; (3) Audio examples of English language word pronunciation and sentence structures; and (4) Fully downloadable worksheets and lesson plans. The text offers expert guidance on: (1) Strategies to help EAL new arrivals embrace their new cultural experience; (2) Assessing the EAL new arrivals in their English language skills; (3) Teaching EAL new arrivals to use a second language writing system; (4) Delivering survival language intervention sessions; (5) Developing effective language learning strategies; (6) Managing EAL new arrivals in the mainstream classroom; (7) Resources that you use to support EAL new arrivals; and (8) Evaluating EAL provision for new arrivals and setting targets for whole school improvement. This flexible and user-friendly resource can be used with the English National Curriculum, International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP), the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), and other English speaking curricula. It will be a must-have for all schools looking to support newly arrived children with speaking English as an additional language.
