Creating Inclusive Classrooms for Muslim Students: A Practical Guide for Teachers is the first comprehensive resource specifically designed to help K-12 educators understand and address the unique educational experiences of Muslim students. Drawing on Muslim Critical Theory (MusCrit), this book translates complex theoretical concepts into immediately actionable classroom strategies.

The book explores six core tenets through real classroom case studies spanning elementary, middle, and high school contexts: recognizing systemic oppression, addressing the impact of visible Muslim identity, acknowledging gender intersections, amplifying authentic Muslim voices, challenging white cultural norms, and fostering essential allyship. Each chapter provides reflective practice exercises, concrete implementation strategies, and comprehensive resource lists.

Readers will gain specific tools to recognize anti-Muslim bias in curriculum materials, create culturally responsive classroom practices, support students with visible religious identities, and advocate for systemic change. The book transforms good intentions into effective practice, ensuring Muslim students can thrive authentically in your educational spaces.
