Families are resources that are extremely powerful and important for young learners from minoritized backgrounds, yet such families are often overlooked, silenced, or ostracized. This book presents a much-needed framework for family and community engagement in the early childhood and elementary literacy classroom that embraces and foregrounds students' unique cultural backgrounds. This book spotlights the families of minoritized learners and the crucial role that they play in building dynamic and inspiring environments for learning. To re-envision the engagement of these families in the early childhood classroom, the book provides an accessible understanding of Yosso's theory of community cultural wealth. Covering key topics such as children's literature and digital tools, the book features strategies for implementing culturally responsive classroom practices to create positive home-school partnerships. Each chapter highlights one type of capital in community cultural wealth-aspirational, linguistic, familial, social, navigational, and resistant-and gives teachers guidance on working with and supporting the efforts of families both inside and outside of the classroom. This book is an essential resource to inform current and future early childhood educators on how to gain deeper understandings of what families-especially from Communities of Color-already are doing for the education of their children, and how best to support them.
