Teachers Say...

"Thinking About Language reflects the distillation of decades of thought, clinical expertise, and teaching about language by one of New England's finest teachers. I will recommend it to everyone who works with children, particularly those children who have challenges in oral and written language. The book is a tribute to the complexity of language and those who teach it. Bravo!" —Maryanne Wolf, Director, Center for Reading and Language Development at Tufts University Thinking About Language is an exceptional tool for educators who need to understand more about how to manage language instruction and how to integrate instruction in language with content." —Lou Salza, Head of School ASSETS School, Honolulu, HI
