|a This study explores the literacy experiences of six African American children who have been in the Reading Recovery program. I attempt to paint a picture of the children's literacy experiences through their own eyes, through their parents' eyes, through their teachers' eyes, through their mentor's eyes, and through my eyes; using qualitative methods, such as observations, interviews, and collection of documents. The following themes were identified through the review of literature and serve as a backdrop for the study: The recognition of the African American children's race on the part of the school; African American children's acquisition of the mainstream culture, or the culture of power; the treatment of African American children's dialect in the schools; and the relevancy of the schools to the African American child's life and experiences. I investigated the African American children's literacy experiences by focusing on the following questions: What is the literacy experience of the African American child in the classroom? What is the literacy experience of the African American child in the special classroom? What is the literacy experience of the African American child with his/her mentor? From the parents' perspective, what are the child's literacy experiences at home? From the perspective of the parents, how does the African American child look as a reader and writer? How does the child see himself or herself as a reader and writer? I identified the following themes through interviews and observations: many different forms of literacy exist in the lives of the children in the study; the children in the study all are in classrooms where their teachers use a combination of direct teaching of language skills and the whole language approach; most of the children have teachers that address the issue of Standard English; three of the children have been retained; and all of the children in the study have a grandparent or a parent that supports them in their educational endeavors.
