The Tesoros Literacy Project: An Experiment in Democratic Communities

Todd DeStigter University of Illinois Chicago

Abstract

Narrates effects of a 10-week literacy project, a collaboration between Latino English-as-a-Second-Language students and at-risk Anglo counterparts in a rural high school in the upper midwest. Highlights "treasures" of their experience as they gather to read Spanish- and English-language literature, to write stories and poems, and to revise each other’s work.
