Editorial Reviews
Book Description

Student Cultural Diversity provides practical advice and solutions to the many K–12 teachers who ask themselves how to address an increasingly diverse student body.

The book's unique framework explores the social, cognitive, and communicative roots of diversity, discussing how children learn to think and communicate within their home, community, and school environments. The responsive teacher theme found throughout the narrative empowers new teachers to take an active role in creating meaningful classroom situations for diverse students. A pertinent focus on the educational needs of linguistically diverse students provides crucial information for communicating in the classroom and teaching all content areas.

In response to the nation's increased emphasis on standards and assessment as indicators of performance, the text provides new coverage of the ways linguistically and culturally diverse students can be fairly assessed.
