All students face struggle, and they should—it is how they learn and grow. The teacher’s job is not to remove struggle, but rather to value and harness it, helping students develop good habits of productive struggle. But what’s missing for many educators is an action plan for how to achieve this, especially when it comes to math. This book guides teachers through six specific actions—including valuing, fostering, building, planning, supporting, and reflecting on struggle—to create a game plan for overcoming obstacles by sharing · Actionable steps, activities, and tools for implementation · Instructional tasks representative of each grade level · Real-world examples showcasing classroom photos and student work

The book is a sociolinguistic case study of District Six, an inner-city neighbourhood in Cape Town characterized by language mixing and switching of English and Afrikaans. Its early inhabitants included indigenous people, freed slaves of African and Asian origin, and immigrants from Europe andelsewhere. The ravages of apartheid affected the residents' attitudes towards their languages in various ways, which are described. The book examines the norms and practices regarding language choice for various functions and domains in the only surviving sector of District Six. It also containsdetailed analyses of extended bilingual conversations showing a range of social, linguistic and discourse features. Of particular interest is the paradoxical polarization and blending of the two languages. They are strongly polarized symbolically and functionally, yet they are also habituallyblended in vernacular speech through lexical borrowing and intrasentential language switching. This paradox has interesting implications for the construction of individual, community and language identity.

The stories of Naz Gool Ebrahim and District Six are intimately linked; in fact it is hard to imagine the one without the other. Naz combined her radical political activism with her roles as devoted wife and mother to six children. Up until the end of her life in 2005, she worked tirelessly to oppose the evil of racial segregation. To her opponents, she was an indomitable adversary, but to her friends she was 'Naz - Raz-a-ma-tazz', a great lady who certainly knew how to tell a story and put on a good show. This book is in three parts: Section One deals with the period 1652 - 1947 and gives a history of the formation of the Cape Colony, the origins of District Six and the emergence of Cissie Gool as a strong political figure. Section Two covers the timeframe 1948 - 1963 and looks in more depth at apartheid government policy, the Group Areas Act and the death of Cissie Gool. Section Three begins February 11, 1966 when District Six was declared a 'White Area' and tells the story of Naz's struggle to get the international community to pay attention to the plight of all those evicted from their homes due to ethnic cleansing. When Naz was facing eviction from District Six, her home became a focal meeting point for the community. In an effort to make one last stand and let their voices be heard, Naz started writing slogans all over the walls of her house and soon the rest of the community joined in, so literally, 'the TRUTH is on the WALLS'.
