Notes
Emphasizing writing and student inquiry, this rich collection offers teachers ready-to-use classroom resources with a sound basis in best practice. Student engagement with community becomes the centerpiece of the book, an engagement that takes place across disciplines through projects involving history, environment, culture, and much more. Editors Dave Winter and Sarah Robbins present teachers and students at all grade levels with lively, classroom-tested lessons that can be easily adapted to different teaching levels and a variety of settings. The book also effectively addresses curricular guidelines specific to local, regional, or state settings, as well as to national standards.
