Recenzii

This captivating and compelling book is filled with tremendous intellectual vitality. Each contributor has provided a well-researched, thoughtfully well-written and well-described account of the experiences of immigrants in the United States. Readers will greatly appreciate the accounts and analysis of immigrant experiences that are portrayed against the complex, troubling, and political background of the current times.
This book powerfully frames immigrants and refugees through a strengths-based lens. The authors offer readers robust insights into the challenges that many families and their children face while navigating home and school culture in the United States. This book presents practical and realistic recommendations grounded in research-based culturally responsive teaching practices for the classroom. This book includes innovative suggestions for creating space that ultimately honors the voices of immigrants and refugees inside and outside of the classroom.
We often recall stories of treasured customs and traditions handed down from previous generations of family members. However, as these are often from the distant past, today's America also represents more recent and current newcomers. Immigrant Experiences: Expanding the School-Home-Community Dialogue sheds much needed light on contemporary immigration, through the authors' own lived stories.This timely book can serve as a means to begin and extend conversations to foster understanding of how immigrants greatly contribute to the identity and humanity of our country.
