Multicultural Social Studies

About this book

"Focusing on the goals of student-centered learning while also attending to standards-driven mandates, this practical, "how-to" volume provides educators with a way to integrate multicultural themes into the K-12 social studies curriculum. The author demonstrates how teachers can draw on the histories of their local school communities to help students connect to broader topics in U.S. history and explore crucial themes of diversity."--Jacket.
