The topics in this book cover understanding the needs of ELs, validity in assessing, best practices for working with undocumented immigrant children, and using culturally responsive social emotional learning pedagogy with ELs. This book will become a favorite for all engaged in this field to help build their knowledge, skills, and dispositions in creating educational spaces where English Learners will thrive and succeed. -- Charlene Lui, executive director, National Associate for Multicultural EducationEnglish Language Learners: The Power of Culturally Relevant Pedagogiesdoes an outstanding job conveying culturally relevant pedagogy and how responsiveness is needed to address the current educational and societal climate of our country. It is evident from the research that learning environments must assess and alter their approach to convey the needs of all constituents. An inclusive paradigm is the path forward! -- Camacia Smith-Ross, assistant professor of education, Southern University and A&M College; executive board, Center for Racial Justice, Dillard UniversityThis book confirms the importance of culturally responsive approaches to English language learning and learners.
