In today's globally connected world, it is essential for students
to have an understanding of multiple cultures and perspectives. In
this edited collection, Kathy Short, Deanna Day, and Jean Schroeder
bring together fourteen educators who use global children's
literature to help students explore their own cultural identities.
The book lays out why this kind of global curriculum is important
and how to make space for it within district and state mandates.
Built around a curriculum framework developed by Kathy, the ideas
and strategies in Teaching Globally will help teachers integrate a
global focus into existing literacy and social studies curricula,
evaluate global resources, guide students as they investigate
cross-cultural issues, and create classroom activities with an
intercultural perspective. Teaching Globally is filled with
vignettes from K-8 urban and rural schools that describe successes
and struggles, as well as real examples of students responding to
global literature. Extensive lists of book recommendations,
websites, and professional books, as well as an appendix of global
text sets mentioned by the authors, complete this must-have
resource.
