@TNap12 @MissKSaint Hi Tonianne,
My girlfriend teachs in NYC. She just read this and said is was fabulous. Another one(older book) "The White Teacher" is also very good. It is about a white teacher teaching in a mixed culture school and how she overcame some of her ways of thinking.☺
@TNap12 You are so right! You and Janine are special people. God put you two together as sisters because he knew you would make a great team and make a difference!❤
“Understand that teaching them, and especially teaching them to read is the salvation you have to offer and the salvation they most need. Don’t let their poverty, stories, and circumstances distract you from that, not for a minute.”

Very interesting read. "Essentials of Assessing, Preventing, and Overcoming Reading Difficulties" by David A. Kilpatrick. He has compiled useful research for assessing reading difficulties and designing interventions. His belief is "Orthographic Mapping" is the "Holy Grail"
