| Summary: | This new edition of the bestseller Reading, Writing, and Talk responds to the urgent need for creating language and literacy pathways that are inclusive, intentional and center wholeness and belonging. The authors explain, show, and offer critical reflections on the development, teaching and learning of reading, writing, and talk from preschool through the early grades--across language practices, dis/abilities and contexts. This second edition troubles whose reading, writing and talk belongs in schools, offering insights into and examples of fostering belonging in the classroom. It elucidates the racialization of academic language and analyzes school-sponsored language and literacy curricula to demonstrate the power of expansive literacies and linguistic justice in practice. Readers will enter classrooms where teachers learn from and alongside children, families, and communities about identities, practices, values, funds of knowledge and more. This thorough update of the popular text offers a wealth of knowledge and examples to help educators truly and fully teach reading, writing, and talk for equity and justice. |
