Produktbeschreibung
This timely book explores what is often overlooked in policy debates about the education of English language learners: how the day-to-day dynamics of the classroom are affected by high-stakes testing and the pressures students and teachers experience and internalize as a result. The author presents and analyzes classroom observations, student work, and test scores, as well as interviews with students and teachers.

While hard to believe, all the depictions presented took place in a real elementary school classroom and reflect the current culture of extreme accountability.
