Poor Students, Rich Teaching: Seven High-Impact Mindsets for Students From Poverty (Using Mindsets in the Classroom to Overcome Student Poverty and Adversity)

Description:

About this item:

There are three critical characteristics to know about poverty and education:

  1. The devastating effects of poverty are accelerating.
  2. Poverty affects both you and your students in multiple adverse ways.
  3. You have the power to reverse the academic impact poverty has on your students, and this comprehensive resource will show you how.

In this revised and updated edition, two of Eric Jensen's top-selling books (Poor Students, Rich Teaching and Poor Students, Richer Teaching) have been merged into one must-read resource on poverty and education. Dr. Eric Jensen clearly defines seven mindsets essential for reaching economically disadvantaged students and shares corresponding strategies for overcoming adversity and ensuring college and career readiness for all learners, regardless of socioeconomic status.

Motivate students to learn in the face of poverty using mindsets in the classroom:

  • Understand the urgency of poverty in the United States and how poverty affects education, student engagement, and academic achievement.
  • Learn how creating a positive school culture and a growth mindset for students can be beneficial in overcoming adversity.
  • Gain seven high-impact mindsets that bring change: the relational mindset, achievement mindset, rich classroom climate mindset, engagement mindset, positivity mindset, enrichment mindset, and graduation mindset.
  • Build effective teacher-student relationships, and help students see college and career readiness as a reachable target.
  • Create a welcoming classroom climate where all students love to learn, and drive student engagement, motivation, and success.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Eric Jensen's books are a ringing advocacy for schools' most challenging students: the children of poverty. In this revised edition of Poor Students, Rich Teaching, he weaves together the biological and neurological foundations of learning with the gritty, day-to-day demands of classroom teaching. He is a genius; even better, he is our genius."

--Robert D. Barr, coauthor, Building a Culture of Hope; dean emeritus, Boise State University, Idaho

"Poor Students, Rich Teaching is the perfect balance of research and practical application. The universal strategies Eric provides are suitable for all students but are particularly beneficial for students impacted by poverty."

--Deborah Stevens, director of instructional advocacy, Delaware State Education Association

Eric Jensen makes it so simple. Of course it is challenging to meet the needs of each students, but Eric Jensen has an easy-to-understand style. It is like he is here explaining the strategies. I bought the book a few months ago, but I find myself referring to it. If you have Title 1 students, this is a great book. The bonus is that these strategies will work for many students.Dr. Jim Ewing (Author of "Math for ELLs. As Easy as Uno, Dos, Tres."EwingLearning.com

Eric Jensen writes a lot of great material to assist in poverty in education. Not my preferred book (Teaching with Poverty in Mind), but definitely up there. Good use of data driven results.
