| Summary |
Multiculturalism ... Diversity ... Gender Equity. With all our talk about creating classrooms where every child can succeed, be heard, and form friendships, in such a vision realistic? Is it really possible to have multicultural, equitable classrooms? Who's Invited to Share? is written for K-6 teachers who believe like Roxanne Henkin that we can achieve these goals. Her book is unique in its broad focus on children who may be outsiders for any number of reasons. It addresses issues of gender discrimination, true multicultural teaching, and teaching for social justice. This is also the first time that children from lesbian and gay families are included in the discussion of diversity. |
