Cross the Street to a New World
Naiditch, Fernando
Phi Delta Kappan, v94 n6 p26-29 Mar 2013
The author recalls his long ago work with an immigrant student that the school system declared to have a learning disability. Instead, it was the system that was unable to learn how to connect with the child and his family, a task that simply required listening and a walk across the street.
