Professional Book Reviews: Creating Critical, Joyful, and Socially Just Classrooms
Language Arts, Vol.92(1), pp.59-63
09/01/2014
Abstract
This issue’s professional book reviews examine a range of texts that explore teacher inquiry in a variety of contexts. Whether the authors are examining educational philosophies such as Reggio Emilia and its application to literacy workshops or ways to consider how our research and practices position youth, this month’s authors all engage in research that changes how teachers approach their students and curriculum. Underlying each of the professional books is a foundation of the integral nature of reflection in refining one’s teaching practices. These reflective practitioners help us consider curricular structures, critical literacy, humanizing research, and the joy in teaching diverse students. Each of these texts enriched our conversations and affected our practice in small and big ways. We hope they do the same for you.
