“No learning can be student-centered until we center it on who our students
really are.”Literacy-oriented community:
Upbringing weaves in preparation for success in school and in a technological society
Critical thinking, conversational and argumentative skills, vocabulary, and independence are fostered
Non-literacy oriented community:Upbringing values education and less time is spent
interacting with young children in ways that develop adult-like thinking and language skills
Belief is fostered that children will think and use language more like adults as they grow-there’s no rush
Both communities develop intelligent, able children.

There’s More to See -Literacy Orientation
“When we start looking where we need to, we will not only recognize our students’ true thinking styles, strengths, and weaknesses, but also see how essential it is to build strong relationships with students and their families.” (Pranksy, 2009)
Look in order to:Monitor disempowerment and exclusionAttend proactively to what is seen
