This practical resource will help educators to identify, address, and meet the needs of the diverse families in todays classrooms. It is the first book to critically examine how families are represented in the media, schools, and other institutions and apply that information to build effective homeschool partnerships. The authors examine how different relationships between families and teachers are defined by discourses that circulate through formal and informal curricula. They explore how families and educators can collectively reconceptualize these conversations to create positive educational experiences for children. Discussion questions are included in each chapter so that readers can examine their working relationships with the families of their students.This is a volume central to the preparation of all teachers.Gloria LadsonBillings, University of WisconsinMadisonThis book stakes out new ground in the area of homeschool collaboration.Kenneth Teitelbaum, Dean and Professor, Southern Illinois University Carbondale(Mis)Understanding Families takes a refreshing look at homeschool relations, with inspiring examples of how such relations can be reinvented in North American schools. Educators and those who teach them would do well to take heed of the call.Susan Auerbach, California State UniversityNorthridge
