So much attention has been placed on changing the teacher and student relationship in terms of having the students engaged and the teacher as a guide but I don't believe this mentality as changed public opinion about teachers and our role, we are not always viewed as people who are willing to listen and not judge and believe that parents play a very important role in education and need to be heard

However, what keeps teachers in the position of expert evaluator is the fact that school culture itself is focused on grades and test scores.

The more we can validate the whole being of the student (and of course their family) the better off we might be to teach them.

I remember learning once that different generations have different ways of responding to diversity.  At one point tolerance was key.  Then it was acceptance.  It is currently to celebrate, but my prediction is soon it will be to "join in" and "get involved" with different identities.

I would love to include more cultural texts for my students, but with lack of funding and little choice, we often have our hands tied.

I would to do home visits -- I just wonder how to make some of this possible during COVID? I think distance learning is going to greatly impact our relationships with our students and their families.

I completely agree with Luis Molls about visiting in the home with the students and parents.  I have learned so much from my students and their families.  We are an all ELL campus with 23 countries represented.  One of the first journals they write is to explain what about their culture they will always pass down to the their children.  Most have one or more traditions which they want for their children to always celebrate.  Especially their language.  They want their children to speak English but also their Mother tongue.

I really like this table--I hadn't thought of it this way, but I am thinking of all the things my 11 year old son has knowledge of just from running a produce stand this summer.  Interesting!

How can we take the rich and diverse backgrounds our students have and use that as a springboard (and not a crutch) towards their learning? is how I am interpreting it.

I enjoyed Luis' insight on funds of knowledge, he explained how important it is to acknowledge the family unit.
