Acrdg to Gay (2002), there are three key pillars to achievg the knowledge base necsary to enhance culturally rponsive teachg. Gay (2002) remends that all teachers take urs or trags on the ntributns of ethnic groups to ntent areas that they will teach.

Gay (2002) explas that tors need to evaluate "quanty, accuracy, plexy, placement, purpose, variety, signifince, and thenticy of the narrative texts, visual illtratns, learng activi, role mols, and thorial sourc ed the stctnal materials" (p. Gay (2002) explas that a symbolic curriculum clus "imag, symbols, ins, motto, awards, celebratns, and other artifacts that are ed to teach stunts knowledge, skills, morals, and valu" (p. Gay (2002) f this type of curriculum as "the knowledge, ias, and imprsns about ethnic groups that are portrayed the mass media" (p.

Extensn tors need to unrstand how media portray and manipulate ethnic groups and what curricula and stctn n do to unteract those fluenc (Gay, 2002). Gay (2002) explas that pedagogil actns (pedagogy is the method and practice of teachg) are as important as curriculum sign, and she lls for tors to e cultural sffoldg teachg ethnilly diverse stunts, which means "g their own cultur and experienc to expand their tellectual horizons and amic achievement" (p.

Developg the partnerships rults buildg learng muni among diverse learners, which is a cril element of culturally rponsive teachg (Gay, 2002, 2018).

Extensn tors mt unrstand how the different work styl may impe on amic succs and need to unrstand how to velop more munal learng environments (Gay, 2002).

Acrdg to Gay (2002), munitn styl of different ethnic groups not only reflect cultural valu, but also shape learng behavrs and should be nsired when modifyg tnal teractns. The munitns style of the majory of ethnic groups the Uned Stat n be scribed as "more active, participatory, dialectic and multimodal" (Gay, 2002, p. Ias are munited by "providg a lot of background rmatn; beg passnately and personally volved wh the ntent of the disurse; g much directns (such as nuendo, symbolism, and metaphor) to nvey ias; weavg many different threads or issu to a sgle story; and embeddg talk wh feelgs of tensy, advocy, evaluatn, and athetics" (Gay, 2002, p.

Gay (2002) asserts that culture is eply entrenched teachg, so tg ethnilly diverse clients has to be "multiculturalized. Learng styl every ethnic group clu eight key ponents (Gay, 2002):.
