The Common Core State Standards require students to be creators, critics, and communicators of ideas across disciplines. Yet in order to take on these new and exciting roles, many students need daily teaching with an extra emphasis on accelerating their academic communication skills.

Common Core Standards in Diverse Classrooms describes seven research-based teaching practices for developing complex language and literacy skills across grade levels and disciplines: using complex texts, fortifying complex output, fostering academic interaction, clarifying complex language, modelling, guiding, and designing instruction. Teachers will find clear descriptions and examples of how these essential practices can be woven together in real lessons, classroom activities based on the seven practices, dozens of classroom examples, detailed lessons, and more.
