Moving Beyond Personal Loss to Societal Grieving considers how
secondary English language arts teachers and teacher educators can
sensitively and thoughtfully teach pieces of literature in their
classrooms in which large-scale deaths are a significant, if not
central, aspect of the texts. As mass shootings and violence
against black and brown bodies increase, and issues such as AIDS,
war, and genocide remain important to discuss as part of a shared,
critical, and social consciousness, this book provides resources
for educators to directly tackle and discuss these topics through
the texts they read in their ELA classrooms. Whether it is
canonical or contemporary literature, middle grades or young adult
literature, fiction, nonfiction, or graphic novels, literature
provides a vehicle to have these difficult but needed conversations
about not only the personal but social effects of death and grief
in our society. Each chapter in this book focuses on 1-2 texts and
provides practical activities that ask students to engage with
death, dying, and loss through writing assignments, projects,
activities, and discussion prompts in order to build empathy,
understanding, and develop critically-minded and engaged students.
Moving Beyond Personal Loss to Societal Grieving will be of
interest to English language arts teachers, teacher educators,
librarians, and scholars who wish to explore with their students
the complex emotions that revolve around discussing deaths that
occur in literature.
