Abstract:

Although Indigenous peoples are active citizens of the Americas, many
Spanish language teachers lack the knowledge and understanding of
their history, culture, and languages that is needed to present the
Spanish language in context. By presenting a more complete picture of
the Spanish speaking world, Indigenous America in the Spanish Language
Classroom invites teachers to adjust their curricula to create a more
inclusive classroom.

Anne Fountain provides teachers with key historical and cultural
information about Indigenous peoples throughout the Americas and
explains how to incorporate relevant resources into their curricula
using a social justice lens. This book begins with an overview of the
Iberian impact on Indigenous Americans and connects it to language
teaching, giving practical ideas that are tied to language learning
standards. Each chapter finishes with a list for further reading,
inviting teachers to dig deeper. The book ends with a set of ten
conclusions and an extensive list of resources organized by topic to
help teachers find accurate information about Indigenous America to
enrich their teaching. Fountain includes illustrations that relate
directly to teaching ideas.

Hard-to-find resources and concrete teaching ideas arranged by level
as well as a glossary of important terms make this book an essential
resource for all Spanish language teachers.
