Literacy Instruction for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students, Vol. 1 » (1st Edition)

This compilation provides novice and veteran teachers alike a better understanding of culturally and linguistically diverse learners. Articles show how theory can be put into classroom practice and demonstrate the need to value and celebrate diversity, rather than viewing differences as deficiencies. An Annotated Bibliography of Multicultural Children's Literature includes a list of more than 100 multicultural books published in 1997. These titles can be used to form collections for classroom libraries and also can be used with the teaching strategies suggested in this book.
