Oglan, Gerald
Talking Points, v12 n2 p2-6 Apr-May 2001
Discusses the case of a parent who enrolled her daughter in an after-school literacy program after being told she was not succeeding in school. Notes the teacher was by turns suspicious of and uninterested in the techniques used in the program. Examines the girl's development as a learner as she worked with her mother on developing weekly grocery lists. (RS)
