Developing Pedagogies in the Multilingual Classroom

In the field of teaching children English as an additional language, Josie Levine was a leader in the move away from language centres and to language support in the mainstream classroom. This book is a collection of her work, tracing the development of her views as a result of her experiences as a classroom teacher, through her creation of the Scope Stage 2 materials for Schools Council, to her training of other teachers at the University of London Institute of Education. Many of her ideas are now common currency in schools but their origins are not always placed, as they should be, with the originator.
