Offers teachers a richly textured picture of the world of middle-school students. It describes who these students are, explains why fostering their voice is important, and discusses the creation of a community of literacy partners. It addresses topics related to technology, reading, writing, research, use of the arts, community, and assessment. It focuses on such important issues as recognising the impact of social media; the effect of the internet on research; the need for critical literacy; and the potential of the school library.
