Stanford's 'Understanding Language' group launches new materials for teaching math with ELLs10/4/2013 Judit Moschkovich and colleagues at Stanford's 'Understanding Language' project have released a series of documents and instructional templates designed to provide teachers with conceptual and practical resources for working with English learning students around mathematics in elementary and secondary settings. There are 4 major components of the release: 1) an introduction to the materials; 2) general principles for mathematics instruction; 3) guidelines for math instructional materials development; and 4) "Language of Math" mask templates. The latter is meant to provide practical applications of 1 - 3. Embedded in the problem-solving nature of the instruction are the language foci, which appear to be small-group and discussion-based, particularly as regards word problems, while also targeting more discrete skills instruction, including general vocabulary, syntax, and morphological awareness. Here's the link to the release.

I am a professor in the Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College, and director of the Curriculum & Instruction doctoral program. I have served as an associate editor at Child Development, Applied Psycholinguistics, and an editor at Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools. I was a bilingual teacher in Detroit, MI and have worked in district, state, and nonprofit settings. I work with bilingual learners from multilingual homes in K-8 settings, thinking about language use and development, cross-linguistic relations, instructional interventions, and teacher practice. I've published a bunch of articles and book chapters, and have developed language and reading curricula. I always work in close collaboration with teachers to facilitate the translation of research to practice.
