Samenvatting:

Foster Learning Success for All Children with Culturally Responsive Practices

Each of us is a cultural being. The culturally responsive strategies laid out in this book help you to understand the influences of your own culture on your teaching and to center children’s cultures—including their knowledge, experiences, and languages—to build relationships and teach in ways that make learning more meaningful for them.

To help you meet the promise of early learning for every child you teach, this insightful text offers

• Reflection opportunities to dig deeper into your own cultural self, identify biases, and better harmonize your teaching with children’s and families’ cultures

• Clear explanations of culturally responsive practices and why they matter to children’s sense of self and their learning and development

• Strategies for practicing cultural humility and learning to know children and families as individuals

• Seven principles of culturally responsive practices that help you develop strong relationships with children, build responsive learning environments, and implement effective teaching strategies

• Practical examples that show how culturally responsive practices benefit children with a range of identities and contexts

No matter where you are on your educational journey, this book will transform your teaching practices—and make a lifelong difference for every child.
