Product Description

Discover the potential of children's literature as a tool to teach critical literacy in K-6 classrooms. This book tells the story of eight teachers who work in a variety of schools serving diverse populations. These educators used critical literacy discourse to frame classroom conversations about children's literature, prompting students to critically examine the meaning of the texts they read. By putting this critical edge on children's talk about books, the teachers enabled students to examine and act on social issues that emerged from their conversations. The book shows critical literacy in action through many classroom vignettes and offers a variety of other resources that are the hallmarks of the Kids InSight series, including Reflection Points, examples of students' work, annotated booklists, and information boxes.

    Hi,

    My name is Tony Ward. I have just discovered your blog and thought that you might like to know about my website http://www.TonyWardEdu.com. It’s a free educational resource that contains more than a hundred freely downloadable PDFs on Critical Theory, Critical Pedagogy and Critical Praxis. There is no catch. Please feel free to visit, browse and download the material there as you wish, and please tell colleagues who might also find it useful.

    Thanks
    Tony Ward

    Its like you learn my mind! You appear to know a lot about this, like you wrote the e book in it or something. I think that you simply can do with a few % to pressure the message home a bit, but instead of that, this is magnificent blog. A fantastic read. I’ll definitely be back.
