People who have ordered our new book, Navigating the Common Core with English Language Learners, from Amazon should be receiving them in the mail tomorrow. If you like it, don’t feel shy about leaving a review there!
I thought readers might find it useful for me to share all the excerpts that have been published in various outlets, and putting them together in one place. I think one more is going to be published in The Washington Post soon (By the way, a ton of other free resources from the book can be found here):
