This textbook offers a foundation for how literacy and arts integration interconnect to advance innovation, accessibility, and equitable classroom learning contexts for K-8 students.

Balancing research-backed theory and classroom practice, this book helps readers understand the multiple perspectives, frameworks, and models necessary in the design of learning environments for diverse learners, including sociocultural theories of literacy, new and digital literacies, multiliteracies, culturally responsive pedagogy, critical pedagogy, and art. Written by an author team with decades of experience in teaching literacy, writing, and arts integration across a variety of learning environments, each chapter includes a basis of conceptual framing and research backed by functional case studies and practical classroom practices, as well as discussion questions.

Written as a text for foundational literacy, arts integration, and education courses, Innovation, Literacy, and Arts Integration in Multicultural Classrooms offers an engaging, practical resource for both pre-service and in-service elementary and middle grade teachers and teacher educators.
