Descriere magazin:
A call to action for building a culture of literacy for all students in their pursuit of the American Dream. Award-winning principal and literacy advocate Don Vu examines six conditions of a school\'s culture of literacy (Commitment, Collection, Clock, Conversation, Connection, and Celebration), showing how to create an environment where all students--especially immigrant and refugee children--can thrive. Vu\'s work is a testament to the transformative power of reading--a key to opening the door for all to realize the American Dream. Endorsements Don is a wonderful storyteller, and his honest essays about himself and his family, their escape from the Vietnam days before Saigon fell, his life as an immigrant child, and his experiences and memories of reading illustrate the lasting influence of families, teachers, and books.

He stresses that any shift or initiative in a school\'s culture driven solely by its leaders is unsustainable. Life, Literacy, and the Pursuit of Happiness is rich in practical strategies, thought-provoking conversation topics, student and teacher voices, and inspiration. It is possible for all children to experience reading joy and succeed on short-term measures of success like standardized tests, but Barrett Ranch and schools like it show that when we focus on engaging and supporting readers and their families, children succeed and retain an appreciation for reading. Don Vu and the Barrett Ranch community have given us a gift--a glimpse into the messy but gratifying process of reimagining what reading looks like in our schools. - DONALYN MILLER, award-winning teacher, staff development leader, and author of The Book Whisperer, Reading in the Wild, and Game Changer!: Book Access for All Kids Life, Literacy, and the Pursuit of Happiness is one of the most important books for educators today. Don Vu helps us reimagine what is possible when we create a culture of literacy and commit to student choice, agency, and independent reading. He weaves in personal story throughout, which helps illuminate the challenges and triumphs of the immigrant and refugee experience. The stories and strategies Vu shares, as well as the trade books he recommends, will help educators at all levels create the best environments possible for our immigrant and refuge A call to action for building a culture of literacy for a
