Identity Safe Classrooms, Grades K-5: Places to Belong and Learn

Dr. Steele and Dr. Cohn-Vargas present us with and engaging new way to navigate a long, deeply rooted racially charged society. Sometimes we are unaware of simple actions that affect our children, but this wonderful book seeks to engage the teacher in an easy, yet powerful way. I recommend it to everyone wanting to interact with our culturally rich world in a sensitive and more enriching way. Perfect for teachers and educators. A must read!

This reading opened my eyes to the intricacies of teaching. A great read...

Good textbook.

Good information

So glad I bought this book. Using it with both beginning and veteran teachers for Induction Program PD. Now can't wait for the authors to extend their work into middle grade classrooms.
