In Rethinking Language Arts: Passion and Practice, Second Edition,
author Nina Zaragoza uses the form of letters to her students to
engage pre-service teachers in reevaluating teaching practices,
thus bringing to life a vision of an alternative classroom
environment in which the teacher is the prime mover and creative
leader. Zaragoza discusses and explains the need for teachers to be
decision makers, reflective thinkers, political beings, and agents
of social change in order to create a positive and inclusive
classroom setting. This book is both a critical text that
deconstructs the way language arts are traditionally taught in our
schools as well as a visionary text with clear, no-nonsense
directions on how to provide much needed change in our schools.
