Scaffolding Language, Scaffolding Learning: Teaching Second Language Learners in the Mainstream Classroom by Pauline Gibbons
Gibbons also has a great balance between talking about the theories behind her work and giving teachers concrete examples and activities to try out on our own. This book explains and illustrates research on second language learning while at the same time describing and explaining numerous activities that put that research into action.
