Cultural journeys

By Pamela S. Gates, Dianne L. Hall Mark

Subjects: Young adult literature, Children's literature, History and criticism, Children's literature, history and criticism, Multiculturalism in literature, Young adult literature, history and criticism

Description: As multicultural education is becoming integral to the core curriculum, teachers often implement this aspect into their courses through literature. However, standards and criteria to teach and promote active discussion about this literature are sparse. Cultural Journeys provides these guidelines through the age-appropriate fiction and non-fiction works embedded in the book. With the example unit plans and extensive annotated bibliography, this book is a valuable resource that pre-service and in-service teachers will utilize throughout their careers.</sp.
