But when there are large gaps in literacy and numeracy skills, what can educators do? This monograph, developed by a team of experienced ESL/ELD educators, provides an overview of promising practices to build and accelerate the acquisition of literacy skills so that all English language learners, including those with limited prior schooling, can begin to meet the expectations of the Ontario curriculum."--P. 1.
