520 A Framework for Understanding Poverty was Dr. Ruby Payne's
first book and the first book RFT Publishing Co. (now aha!
Process, Inc.) published. It is fitting that the book and
the company's history are intertwined. The central goal of
the company is educating people about the differences that
separate economic classes and then teaching them skills to
bridge those gulfs. Framework is the method that delivers
that message. Ruby's thesis for Framework is simple.
Individuals accustomed to personal poverty think and act
differently from people in the middle and upper economic
classes. Most teachers today come from middle-class
backgrounds. Economic class differences, in an educational
setting, often make both teaching and learning
challenging. Too often, teachers don't understand why a
student from poverty is chronically acting out or is not
grasping a concept even after repeated explanations. At
the same time, the student doesn't understand what he/she
is expected to produce and why. Ruby discusses at length
the social cues or "hidden rules" that govern how we think
and interact in society - and the significance of those
rules in a classroom. Framework also illuminates
differences between generational poverty and situational
poverty. Ruby explains the "voices" that all of us use to
project ourselves to the outside world and how poverty can
affect those voices. Through the use of realistic teaching
scenarios, Ruby focuses attention on sources of support,
or resources, which might or might not be present in a
student's life. Resources are important assets - things
like mental stability, emotional support, and physical
health - and the more resources students have in their
lives, the better able they'll be to achieve their goals.
Framework is a teacher's book. It draws on years of
experience in multiple school systems, along with a wide
range of academic positions. In this groundbreaking work
Ruby Payne matter-of-factly presents the issues central to
teaching students from poverty, then takes a pivotal next
step by offering proven tools educators can use
immediately to improve the quality of instruction in their
classrooms.
