Using Multicultural Literature in Gifted Education Classrooms

Explains the Ford-Harris Matrix model of multicultural education in teaching literature to gifted students. This matrix combines levels of infusing multicultural content (contributions, additive, transformation, and social action) with the thinking processes of Bloom's Cognitive Taxonomy (knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation). The model is applied to a book at the primary grade level. (DB)
