Educators will find in this book an opportunity to examine the
multiple, dynamic identities of the students they instruct and to
consider the ways in which all teachers and students are shaped by
their social and cultural settings. The volume is the first to
examine theories of identity and elementary literacy practices by
presenting data in a teacher-friendly format. The chapters
highlight the influences of school and, to some extent, home
contexts on students' identities as readers and writers, and give
numerous implications for practice. McCarthey collected data from
three sites in which teachers implemented writing workshop and
literature-based instruction in grades 3-6. This book focuses on
the students in these sites, who were from diverse cultural and
social backgrounds. By providing information about the contexts in
which students read and wrote, McCarthey demonstrates the power of
the teacher-student relationship, the importance of the classroom
curriculum, and the influence of parents and peers on students.
