Teaching Tough Topics, Paperback / softback Book

Teaching Tough Topics Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Teaching Tough Topics shows teachers how to lead students to become caring citizens as they read and respond to quality children’s literature.

It focuses on topics that can be challenging or sensitive, yet are significant in order to build understanding of social justice, diversity, and equity.

Racism, Homophobia, Bullying, Religious Intolerance, Poverty, and Physical and Mental Challenges are just some of the themes explored.

The book is rooted in the belief that by using picture books, novels, poetry, and nonfiction, teachers can enrich learning with compassion and empathy as students make connections to texts, to others, and to the world.
