Despite an increase in efforts to promote equity and social justice
in educational settings, researchers have found that teachers at
the elementary, middle school, and secondary school levels are both
reluctant and unaware of how to present social justice issues in
the classroom. Inspired by these findings, a team of literacy
scholars gathered qualitative research from eight schools across
Canada to reveal what challenges literacy teachers face when
incorporating social justice in their curricula. Rich in examples
of contemporary Canadian social justice authors, illustrators, and
texts, Challenging Stories equips teachers and teacher candidates
with strategies for text selection, literacy development, and
effective social justice teaching methods. With a foreword by Joyce
Bainbridge, this collection is an essential read for students in
teacher education programs.
