Thematic Literature and Curriculum for English Language Learners in Early Childhood Education. ERIC Digest

Link: http://www.cal.org/ericcll/DIGEST.

The incorporation of age- and language-appropriate thematic literature into the early childhood curriculum can stimulate content-based academic learning for English language learners (ELLs). This systematic approach is particularly beneficial to young ELLs ages 3 through 8, because it provides background knowledge and cultural information along with opportunities to hear, speak, and interact with carefully crafted language in thematic and story contexts.
