- Synopsis
- 'Life, Literacy, and the Pursuit of Happiness' is the first professional title dedicated to addressing a school’s reading culture with a focus on the needs of immigrant and refugee students and families―including learning their target language, English. Dr. Vu presents the six conditions of culture that are informed by the research―Commitment, collection, clock, conversation, connection, and celebration―that create a school environment where immigrant and refugee students can thrive. Additionally, Dr. Vu provides practical strategies that most effectively support students who are new to this country.
