English Language Learners: The Power of Culturally Relevant Pedagogies (The National Association for Multicultural Education (NAME))

Review\nAs a practitioner who has worked with English Learners (ELs) for more than twenty-five years, English Language Learners: The Power of Culturally Relevant Pedagogies is extremely helpful when looking for ways to include culturally responsive approaches when teaching our ELs. The topics in this book cover understanding the needs of ELs, validity in assessing, best practices for working with undocumented immigrant children, and using culturally responsive social emotional learning pedagogy with ELs. This book will become a favorite for all engaged in this field to help build their knowledge, skills, and dispositions in creating educational spaces where English Learners will thrive and succeed. -- Charlene Lui, executive director, National Associate for Multicultural Education\nEnglish Language Learners: The Power of Culturally Relevant Pedagogiesdoes an outstanding job conveying culturally relevant pedagogy and how responsiveness is needed to address the current educational and societal climate of our country. It is evident from the research that learning environments must assess and alter their approach to convey the needs of all constituents. An inclusive paradigm is the path forward! -- Camacia Smith-Ross, assistant professor of education, Southern University and A&M College; executive board, Center for Racial Justice, Dillard University\nThis book confirms the importance of culturally responsive approaches to English language learning and learners. Ranging from theoretical explorations to methodological and empirical elaborations, English Language Learners demonstrates the breadth of contemporary culturally responsive pedagogies in the discipline. It will be an engaging and insightful read for both newcomers and veterans. -- Lisa Zagumny PhD, professor and dean, College of Education, Tennessee Tech University; President National Association for Multicultural Education\nThe recent increase in immigration patterns in the United States has meant an increase in the number of children entering American schools whose first language is not English. Some reports indicate that as many as one in four students come from families where the language spoken in the home is not English. English Language Learners: The Power of Culturally Relevant Pedagogies provides teachers access to information that will help them understand the English language learner, develop effective strategies to teach English language learners, create effective learning environments, and use assessments to meet the needs of English language learners as well as garner community resources to support English language learners.
