Practicing What We Teach: How Culturally Responsive Literacy Classrooms Make a Difference - Softcover
Synopsis
This accessible book features K–12 teachers and teacher educators who report their experiences of culturally responsive literacy teaching in primarily high-poverty, culturally nondominant communities. These extraordinary teachers show us what culturally responsive literacy teaching looks like in their classrooms and how it advances children’s academic achievement. This collection captures different dimensions of culturally responsive (CR) practice, such as linking home and school, using culturally responsive literature, establishing relationships with children and parents, using cultural connections, and teaching English language learners and children who speak African American language. This engaging collection:
- Provides a window into what teachers actually do and think when they serve culturally diverse children, including classroom-tested teaching practices.
- Depicts teachers enacting CR teaching in the presence of scripted curricula and rigid testing schedules.
- Covers childhood, secondary, and higher education classrooms.
- Helps readers imagine how they can transform their own classrooms through “Make This Happen in Your Classroom” sections at the end of each chapter.
- Includes a “Becoming a Culturally Responsive Teacher” self-evaluation form.

Seller: Bulrushed Books, Moscow, ID, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Condition: Acceptable. LIGHTNING FAST SHIPPING! A heavily used, but still working copy. Coffee stain and wrinkling to the edge of the pages when a tired undergrad fell asleep and knocked their cup over on their books. The binding and pages of the book have been reinforced with tape, has tape and stickers on the cover, as well as lots of notes (some of the answers in the learning activities may be filled in) on the pages. Definitely not pretty, but it's a working copy at a great price that ships fast. ~ Book does NOT contain an access code or CD/DVD. Seller Inventory # #125F-0129
