Every teacher is a language teacher, every student is a language learner, and every classroom needs a Language Lens.
Sarah Ottow has spent 20 years helping schools and organizations develop a Language
Lens—a cultural and linguistic responsiveness that improves the learning experience
and achievement of every language learner. The Language Lens for Content Classrooms:
A Guide for K-12 Educators of Academic and English Language Learners is the starting
point for any general education, or content, teacher of:
- English Language Learners: students who are learning English as a second (or more!) language, and who m ay not speak English at home.
- Academic Language Learners: students who are learning the language necessary to access the curriculum—the nuanced language needed to process and apply content standards, skills, and knowledge that differ for every subject—who may or may not be ELLs.
It doesn’t matter if you teach Chemistry, Gym, or Language Arts; any student can be
a language learner, so this guide is for every K-12 instructor who is looking to be
more eective, inclusive, and responsive in their classroom.

Review
This book arrives right on time, as it provides teachers and leaders with a practical guide that combines language development tools and strategies with an appreciation for culture and student identity. As an ESL student who now sits in the superintendent’s office, I appreciate the book’s conscious effort to move practitioners to getting to know their students culturally and linguistically, while providing a very comprehensive set of competencies that support language learners in content classrooms. The stories of students’ language learning journeys bring this work to life and the added bonuses of links to many other resources make this book a must have for anyone interested in building a multi-lingual community.
Victor F. Capellan, Superintendent, Central Falls School District
"The Language Lens for Content Classrooms" offers an essential blend of instructional strategies and approaches as well as a holistic vision of the mindsets and perspectives any and every educator of English Learners must have. Ottow breaks down the terminology and context of an increasingly diverse K-12 education system and provides suggestions, tools, and thought-provoking questions to guide the reader. Readable, relatable, and rich with examples and anecdotes, I recommend "The Language Lens for Content Classrooms" for educators starting off or seeking to refine and deepen their practice in teaching with English Learners.
Rebecca Westlake, ELL Director, Salem Public Schools
Author Sarah Ottow's wealth of knowledge is on full display here. This book is a comprehensive and accessible primer for classroom teachers who want to support their multilingual learner students but aren’t sure where to start. Language and content teachers alike will find practical “next day” strategies to help meet the needs of multilingual learners.
Melissa Katz, Director of the NYC Special Education Collaborative and Inclusive Education Initiatives

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
