DOWNLOAD EBOOKDesigned to promote reflection, discussion, and action among the entire learning community, Educating Everybody's Children encapsulates what research has revealed about successfully addressing the needs of students from economically, ethnically, culturally, and linguistically diverse groups and identifies a wide range of effective principles and instructional strategies. Although good teaching works well with all students, educators must develop an extensive repertoire of instructional tools to meet the varying needs of students from diverse backgrounds. Those tools and the knowledge base behind them are the foundation of this expanded and revised second edition of Educating Everybody's Children. Each strategy discussed in the book includes classroom examples and a list of the research studies that support it. The most important thing we have learned as a result of the education reform movement is that student achievement stands or falls on the motivation and skills of teachers. We must ensure that all teachers are capable of delivering a standards‐based curriculum that describes what students should know and be able to do, and that these standards are delivered by means of a rich and engaging "pedagogy of plenty." By these two acts we can ensure that all schools will be ready and able to educate everybody's children.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book presents a collection of papers offering practical strategies that teachers can use to enhance student performance at all levels. The authors identify and describe the most effective teaching approaches for helping students learn history, civics, geography, and science. The book extends the notion of diversity by examining different populations that have been underserved by schools (e.g., homeless and immigrant students). After a "Foreword" (Gene R. Carter) and "Preface" (Robert W. Cole and Helene Hodges), the eight papers are: (1) "Overcoming a Pedagogy of Poverty" (Helene Hodges); (2) "Diverse Teaching Strategies for Homeless Children" (Evelyn Reed-Victor and James H. Stronge); (3) "Diverse Teaching Strategies for Immigrant Children" (JoAnn Crandall, Ann Jaramillo, Laurie Olsen, and Joy Kreeft Peyton); (4) "Strategies for Increasing Achievement in Civics" (Mary Ellen Bafumo and Burton Cohen); (5) "Strategies for Increasing Achievement in Geography" (Mary E. Haas); (6) "Strategies for Increasing Achievement in History" (Virginia E. Causey and Beverly J. Armento); (7) "Strategies for Increasing Achievement in Science" (Charles Watson, Alvin Pettus, and Steven Fairchild); and (8) "ASCD Talks Back" (educators respond to papers in this volume).
