Description
Divided into two parts, this invaluable resource covers the classroom environment and the topics of discipline, arranging the classroom, and parent and community involvement first. In the second half of the book, Gaitan explains how teachers can be culturally responsive in the way in which they teach literacy, math, science, the interdisciplinary curriculum, and other content areas. Based on Gaitan's own interviews, observations, and audio & video recordings with teachers, parents, students, and community leaders, this book shows how teachers can transform the context and content to be culturally responsive to all their students.
Each chapter follows a accessible and user-friendly format, making it ideal for mentoring pairs, group study, or teachers working individually:
Personal reflection from a teacher related to the chapter topic
Discussion of the topic as it relates to the culturally responsive classroom, incorporating the latest research and best practice
Rich case example including dialogues between teachers and students, the author's observations, and teacher reflections about what occurred
Guiding questions
Reflective Questions
Classroom applications
