A critical resource for inclusive teaching in the Spanish classroom
Although Indigenous peoples are active citizens of the Americas,
many Spanish language teachers lack the knowledge and understanding
of their history, culture, and languages that is needed to present
the Spanish language in context. By presenting a more complete
picture of the Spanish speaking world, Indigenous America in the
Spanish Language Classroom invites teachers to adjust their
curricula to create a more inclusive classroom. Anne Fountain
provides teachers with key historical and cultural information
about Indigenous peoples throughout the Americas and explains how
to incorporate relevant resources into their curricula using a
social justice lens. This book begins with an overview of the
Iberian impact on Indigenous Americans and connects it to language
teaching, giving practical ideas that are tied to language learning
standards. Each chapter finishes with a list for further reading,
inviting teachers to dig deeper. The book ends with a set of ten
conclusions and an extensive list of resources organized by topic
to help teachers find accurate information about Indigenous America
to enrich their teaching. Fountain includes illustrations that
relate directly to teaching ideas. Hard-to-find resources and
concrete teaching ideas arranged by level as well as a glossary of
important terms make this book an essential resource for all
Spanish language teachers.
