It's so hard to find useful information about the research in teaching English to adolescents. Our field is dominated by early childhood education research...a terrible shame considering the increasing numbers of adolescent immigrants. Unfortunately, several years have passed since this info was compiled. An update would be fantastic!

So Much to Say is a good resource for secondary teachers looking for information on how to improve education for language minority students. This book is firmly based in current second language acquisition and education research, yet offers practical suggestions for content area teachers. Each of the chapters deals with a different issue concerning the education of language minority students, including the integration of language and content, LEP student assessment, sheltered content classrooms, and sociocultural challenges. Since the majority of the published material focuses on LEP students at the elementary level, this book is especially helpful.
