Summary

A much-needed resource for helping teachers assess the increasing number of diverse students and English learners in today’s K-12 classrooms, Assessment Accommodations for Classroom Teachers of Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students details effective classroom assessment practices and organizes recommended strategies around the four critical dimensions of the CLD student biography: the sociocultural, linguistic, academic, and cognitive dimensions. Written from the perspective of a differential lens on assessment practices for CLD students, the book focuses on the student as the driving force behind its narrative and organization and examines the Who, Where, What, When, and How of using appropriate assessment practices with CLD students.

Dr. Socorro G. Herrera serves as Professor of Elementary Education at Kansas State University and directs the Center for Intercultural and Multilingual Advocacy (CIMA) in the College of Education. Certified in elementary education, bilingual education, and school counseling, Dr. Herrera’s research focuses on literacy opportunities with culturally and linguistically diverse students, reading strategies, and teacher preparation for diversity in the classroom. She has authored several books, including: Mastering ESL/EFL Methods: Differentiated Instruction for Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) Students (2005, 2011, 2016), Accelerating Literacy for Diverse Learners: Classroom Strategies That Integrate Social/Emotional Engagement and Academic Achievement, K—8 (2013, 2017), Crossing the Vocabulary Bridge: Differentiated Strategies for Diverse Secondary Classrooms (2011), Biography-Driven Culturally Responsive Teaching (2010, 2016), and Teaching Reading to English Language Learners: Differentiated Literacies (2010, 2015). Dr. Herrera has authored articles for numerous nationally known journals such as the Bilingual Research Journal, Journal of Research in Education, Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, Journal of Latinos and Education, and Journal of Hispanic Higher Education. In addition to her writing, Dr. Herrera conducts multistate and international professional development on issues of instruction and assessment with CLD students.

Dr. Cabral’s research, teacher preparation efforts, and education consultant activities emphasize strengthening teacher, school, and district capacities to ensure CLD and SPED students’ full access to an enriched core curriculum with appropriately individualized supports throughout their PreK—12 educational experiences.
