Immigrant children are bombarded with negative messages that impact their beliefs and dispositions about schooling, authority, and themselves. Schools can counteract this by providing instruction that includes strategies such as: faculty discussing challenges immigrant students face, focusing on the big mathematics ideas, using multiple representations, and using generative language.
