Download or read book Turning the Page written by Rachel Slaughter and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a dearth of multicultural literature in schools since few schools offer a curriculum that promotes multicultural education. However, by the year 2050, ethnic minority children will make up the majority of the United States public school classrooms. Multicultural literature is the building block of a multicultural education which reflects our nation’s diversity and helps all students learn by providing help to bridge the cultural gap, and promote racial awareness. Teachers often find it difficult to identify or find quality multicultural literature that adheres to the standard curriculum. Turning the Page: The Ultimate Guide for Teachers to Multicultural Literature helps educators find and evaluate multicultural books that are suitable for the classroom and align with the standard curriculum. The book includes a peer-reviewed metric that shows teachers how to substitute biased books with multicultural literature that endorse the same themes. Second, the book includes reviews, lesson plans, and curated book lists of multicultural books. Finally, the book offers a stepwise plan on how to create a task force of school stakeholders who can implement a comprehensive, multicultural program. In 2018, The National Association for Multicultural Education released standards for multicultural education to encourage school staff to become culturally competent and linguistically diverse. Turning the Page: The Ultimate Guide for Teachers to Multicultural Literature moves educators in that direction.
Download or read book The Teacher s Position on the Importance of Multicultural Literature in the Classroom and Its Correlation to the Classroom Library written by LaToya McKoy and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We live in a diverse society; it is important to have multicultural literature in the classroom that reflects the cultural images of students in the classroom. This research exemplifies the benefits of multicultural literature. Multicultural literature increases students' self-esteem, vocabulary, empathy, mirrors students' experiences, and helps them connect to stories that they are reading. I learned that it is important to engage students so they become lifelong readers. Research, as well as the educators interviewed, supports the benefits of multicultural literature. However, there are many challenges to incorporating multicultural literature into the classroom curriculum. I interviewed four teachers about their positions on multicultural literature in the classroom. The teachers all agreed that it is important to have multicultural literature in the classroom. However, I evaluated their classroom libraries and not all the classroom libraries aligned with these educators' positions on the importance of literature that reflected the cultural images of the students in the classroom."--

Download or read book Multicultural Literature in the Content Areas written by Lakia M. Scott and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s public schools represent a demographic of students that are more diverse than ever before. In turn, culturally responsive and affirming teaching practices should mirror the academic, social, and cultural needs of an ever-increasing population of diverse students. Through multicultural education students can discover the ways they are shaped by their own culture, as well as learn more about others. Multicultural education practices provide mutually beneficial dialogue between cultures, and the pedagogical practices increase learning outcomes for not just the ethnically and racially diverse, but all students who are participatory in the content. This book provides educational stakeholders with culturally relevant and affirming techniques for utilizing multicultural literature as a pedagogical tool in social studies, mathematics, science, and reading. Each chapter provides a brief summary about the selected multicultural text and also contains an instructional strategy to be used. Following this, an inquiry-based lesson is provided with supplementary materials and resources that allow for K-12 differentiation.
