ESOL thinking in Geography

I've been on the periphery of work on developing geography for those students for whom English is not their first language, as we have a growing number of students who come to us from other countries.

I've started by delving into a book by Alex Quigley which has a lot of valuable guidance on developing language and vocabulary for all subjects. It has been going down well with those people who have purchased a copy and started to use it.

I'll be sharing some ideas for geographers from this book over the next couple of months, as the work progresses, but would be interested in hearing from anyone else who is also reading the book and planning to make some use of it...
