How can we ensure that all students, regardless of cultural
background or socioeconomic status, are granted equitable
opportunities to succeed in the classroom and beyond? In Keeping It
Real and Relevant: Building Authentic Relationships in Your Diverse
Classroom, author and veteran educator Ignacio Lopez offers
hard-won lessons that educators at all levels can apply to
teaching, assessing, counseling, and designing interventions for
learners from all walks of life. These insights are all rooted in
the same core principle: building deep and meaningful relationships
with students is the key driver of their success. In addition to
examining the pivotal role of relationship-building among teachers
and students in preparing the latter to perform at the highest
level, this book offers: Real-life examples of challenging
classroom situations, each with a detailed breakdown of how they
were peacefully and non-punitively resolved. Strategies for
designing learning environments suited to the individual needs of
students and reflective of their cultural backgrounds. Ideas for
scaffolding students as they experience and internalize epiphanies
about what works and what doesn't, both academically and
behaviorally. Activities and reflection questions for use in
professional development. Many teachers find balancing the needs of
increasingly diverse classrooms made up of learners from
increasingly diverse backgrounds to be a difficult and often
thankless task-and one that takes precious time away from
instructional planning. Here, Lopez outlines simple but ingenious
steps for addressing these needs holistically, in a way that takes
no extra time yet amply enhances the learning experience for
students. Clear, practical, and much-needed, Keeping It Real and
Relevant is the ultimate blueprint for creating a harmonious and
successful classroom for kids of all colors, creeds, and cultures.
