Embracing Diversity is about the craft of teaching, with a
particular focus on celebrating the myriad of human identities
through classic, contemporary, and unconventional texts.
Experienced secondary English language arts educators narrate their
own experiences and provide insights through reflecting upon
aspects of everyday pedagogy. Featuring a rich array of texts
designed to be both familiar and unfamiliar to the reader, the
authors explore complex issues raised by a diverse body of writers,
while simultaneously sharing methods that engage students to think
critically. Topics include how students' learning is influenced by
their identities; the importance of building relationships;
creating a balanced curriculum; developing cultural responsivity
and cultural sustainability; confronting (dis)comfort zonesadapting
to different educational contexts; and considering how the COVID-19
pandemic changed teaching. This teacher-friendly resource
illustrates how reflective practitioners are assisted in their goal
of teaching literacy skills while encompassing issues of social
justice. Book Features: Multiple examples of classroom activities
for the secondary ELA classroom. User-friendly text boxes
highlighting points of interest. Questions at the end of each
chapter to help readers reflect on their own practices. Detailed
appendices featuring recommended books and practical resources.
