Abstract
This paper explores the tenets of culturally responsive pedagogy in K-12 classrooms, which can accelerate the motivation and engagement of every student in the class. The literature review investigates the perspectives of different scholars on the conceptual definition of Culturally Responsive Pedagogy focusing mainly on the following three dimensions by (Richards, Brown, & Forde, 2007): Instructional dimension, Personal dimension, and Institutional dimension. It is evident that students’ knowledge and their ethnic perspectives can facilitate learning by validation of home cultures together with teachers' effective strategies and growth mindset. Educators can merge contemporary knowledge by exploring ethnic ways of acquisition to achieve success.
