Abstract
A growing body of literature has highlighted the importance of disciplinary and interdisciplinary language teaching for ESOL learners. With the emergence of new standards, which emphasize the integration of various language skills and competencies across content areas, the need for teachers to understand and be able to effectively teach ESOL learners the unique ways knowledge is communicated within and across disciplinary boundaries is acute. This chapter focuses on disciplinary and interdisciplinary practices for ESOL students in K‐12 settings with relevant examples from the authors' own field observations, case studies, and first‐hand teaching experiences.
