Key Insight: Strategies for "Architecting Talk" and utilizing translanguaging, allowing students to use their full linguistic repertoire, to deepen conceptual understanding.
Practical Tools: Features the "Fluency Compass" system for connected language assessment and instructional guidance.
Best for: Subject-area teachers, EAL specialists, and curriculum coordinators.
