Learning from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Classrooms by Joan C Fingon
This resource guide looks at new classroom-based literacy research that supports all learners, including culturally and linguistically diverse students.

They describe classrooms where literacy and learning is encouraged and respected, highlighting best practices for classrooms that include English language learners. This valuable book will inform all educators interested in classroom literacy research and how it supports achievement for diverse students. It features contributions from authors at the forefront of teacher research that hold the most promise for initiating change. Contributors: Josephine Arce, Diane Brantley, Sandra A.
