Budge and Parrett discuss five classroom practices important in high-poverty schools that encourage student success and achievement. These five practices are: caring relationships and advocacy, high expectations and support, commitment to equity, professional accountability for learning, and the courage and will to act. Each of the practices gets its own chapter, and each chapter is peppered with self-reflection quizzes, sobering statistics, research findings, classroom discussion ideas, and more. Of special note are the “voices from poverty,” short monologues written by teachers telling their personal experiences with poverty. Annotation ©2018 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
