Critic reviews

"This timely book provides a host of highly practical insights for addressing one of our most important challenges faced by educators striving to meet the needs of all students...cultivating the powerful symbiosis of language development and content learning." (Jeff Zwiers, Stanford University)

"Through putting into practice Ottow's Language Lens Guidebook for observing instruction, our building leaders have become stronger instructional leaders by not only being more in tune for what to look for but being able to provide impactful next steps to teachers." (Alex Naumann, Principal)

"I highly recommend this book because it's so clearly written and absolutely full of useful information. I can sit down for ten minutes and come away with an understanding I can apply right away. When I'm working with a teacher, I can open up The Language Lens and easily find a tool, explanation, or diagram that applies to almost any situation or concern brought to my attention. This is what I need from professional development!" (Julia Jeffers, EL Coordinator/Coach)
