"Multiple Voices, Multiple Texts provides a thorough grounding in the principles and practices of reading, writing, and language development - the kind of grounding teachers need for today's multicultural and multilingual classrooms. It is an innovative text based upon the principles of whole language and the interactive classroom, laying a theoretical framework derived from psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and social constructivism. Once the authors articulate their theory of reading, they offer practical suggestions for creating student-centered classrooms." "This book is an essential reference for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in reading in the content areas, English education students in methods courses, students in reading and literacy studies, classroom teachers, and teacher educators."--BOOK JACKET.
