Celebrate the Cultural and Linguistic Strengths of Multilingual LearnersDespite recent efforts to shift the narrative for our English learners, most of our present policies and practices are indisputably informed by a deficit lens that focuses on what is lacking (English language proficiency) rather than assets (emergent multilingualism. In this book, Sydney Snyder and Diane Staehr Fenner apply a strengths-based perspective where all educators can feel ownership for multilingual learners' success within and beyond classroom walls. Highlights of the book include:*Case studies and reflection exercises to help educators respond to and mitigate deficit-thinking*Practical and printable tools that guide educators on how to draw from students' cultural and linguistic assets*Authentic classroom video clips to support closing knowing-doing gaps*Sketch note graphics that serve as visual supplements to help reinforce key concepts and spotlight central themes.By using culturally responsive teaching as a framework for changing educational outcomes for multilingual learners and presenting the steps needed to develop a climate in which all students' backgrounds, experiences, and cultures are honored, educators will build a stronger and more diverse school community.
