Taylor and Francis Ladybugs, Tornadoes, and Swirling Galaxies

Brad Buhrow and Anne Garcia are primary teachers in a diverse school in Boulder, Colorado. In this book, you will see how they blend comprehension instruction and ELL best practices to explore inquiry as a literacy pathway for English language learners. It is full of photographs of student artwork—including a color insert—that reveals the children's inquiry process, and demonstrates the important role of art as a sign system in ELL literacy and language acquisition.
