As the number of children learning EAL in primary schools increases, it is recognised that all student teachers need to develop the professional expertise to teach them. This text encourages student teachers to carefully consider the children who come under the umbrella of EAL and provides practical strategies for inclusive teaching. It begins by questioning what we mean by EAL and goes on to cover essential theories of learning and approaches to teaching, helping the reader link theory to practice. Chapters on speaking and listening, reading and writing across the curriculum give practical guidance for teaching EAL learners.
