Abstract	Culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) offers the promise of increased success for underserved students in urban schools. This qualitative case study examines a middle school reading teacher's understandings and implementation of CRP and the researcher's supportive role over a three-semester collaboration. Two categories of results are described: evidence of the teacher's increasing CRP and tensions in the collaboration. Increased CRP was evidenced by the teacher's enhanced emphasis on high expectations, metacognitive strategies, critical literacy, and units connected to students' cultures. Tensions included sporadic meetings, overlooked prerequisite instruction, ignored supportive materials, and problematic classroom management. Implications are included. (As Provided).
