Bøger af Christine Clark

LETTERS FROM BERLIN is a charming memoir about a young debutante and the dashing Army helicopter pilot she fell in love with.

Growing up, Christine Clark had a loving relationship with her mother, to whom this book is dedicated. But there were times, due to life pressures, when Clark's mother welcomed the respite of having her daughter spend some time with family and friends. "I turned to other women," Clark said. "My godmother, a cherished neighbor, two teachers and a navy wife-who, in turn and in different ways, offered me support and guidance when I needed it."Clark's life was enriched by time spent with these "other mothers"-and her loving and lively memoir is not only a nostalgic look back at a bygone era in American life, it is also a relevant story for all mothers-all mothers who know that it's not always possible to go it alone.

This work supports PK-12 teachers to independently multiculturally adapt existing curriculum, to create new multicultural curriculum differentiated by content areas and grade levels, and by providing ample examples of what such multicultural transformed literacy and language arts curricula looks like in practice.

The authors of the narrative chapters represented in this volume have in common that they are dedicated to the realization of a critical, multicultural, democratic society. The stories that they share reveal the history of racism in this country over a fifty year period beginning in the late 1930s and continuing into the early 1980s.

In this account of his experience as a culturally and racially mixed American, the author personally challenges institutionalized notions of race, culture, ethnicity and class. This is the teacher's guide to the work.
