This book provides relevant background data and theory regarding English language (EL) students, the challenges they face in learning English, and the need to find strategies for enhancing reading engagement among these students. Additionally, the chapters discuss the ways in which the findings could advance instructional knowledge for EL students. The author presents and explores the results of participant interviews conducted with 10 students, each with different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. From their stories, emerged 7 themes of bilingual instruction including: quality of reading lessons, culturally responsive instruction, active learning offers individualized direction, language instruction, and instructional time for choosing literature. This book will provide teachers with numerous instructional strategies and ways to build literacy into an EL learner's curriculum.
