Publisher's Synopsis
Discover effective, new ways of teaching immigrant-origin students in your classroom
In A World on the Move, Verónica Boix-Mansilla and Adam Strom introduces Re-Imagining Migration's incisive and practical approach for supporting immigrant-origin students and families in the contemporary classroom. In the book, teachers will find a compelling counter-narrative to the prevailing deficit-based conversation surrounding K-12 immigrant-origin youth.
They present research-based, practice-informed, and actionable techniques you can apply in your classroom for immediate results. They include:
- Strategies for teaching the history of immigration to help your students better understand current events and rhetoric
- Ways to communicate across difference to foster inclusive, sustainable classrooms
- Methods for recognizing and addressing the inequities in human experience and migration to help create a safe classroom environment
An indispensable handbook for professionals working with K-12 immigrant-origin children and youth, A World on the Move will earn a prominent place in the libraries of teachers, teachers-in-training, school and district leaders, family liaisons, and curriculum developers.
