Description
Summary:This book teaches how to use culturally responsive teaching (CRT) in the classroom.
Culturally responsive teaching practices are like bright ribbons: when you weave them into everything you teach, you create a beautiful tapestry for successful learning. Lotus Howard, who has spent four decades teaching in diverse classrooms, will show you how to build relationships with your students and create a harmonious community where every child can thrive. You will learn: how to use culturally responsive teaching (CRT) not as an add-on, but as a philosophy that infuses every aspect of the school day; simple strategies for weaving the seven principles of CRT into all lessons and activities, including morning greetings, transition times, and group work; how to be more self-reflective to better appreciate and unlock the unique gifts of students. With an array of practical tips, model lessons, and resources, this book will inspire you to weave a holistic tapestry of teaching and learning that benefits all children. -- Provided by publisher.
