Interdisciplinary Instruction:  A Practical Guide for Elementary and Middle School Teachers
Karlyn E. Wood, State University of New York College at Old Westbury


"Wood's approach to interdisciplinary instruction is comprehensive and practical. Not only is there a strong theoretical foundation laid out for the reader, but also there are helpful step-by-step procedures for creating and implementing an interdisciplinary approach to instruction. Wood provides a rationale for implementing interdisciplinary studies and demonstrates how diverse student populations can benefit from the instructional approach."  –Bruce R. Young, Covenant College, GA
