Synopsis:

Creative teaching ideas, compelling classroom narratives, and hands-on examples show how teachers can promote the values of community, justice, and equality while building academic skills. A great resource for new and veteran K-12 teachers, as well as teacher education and staff development programs.

Review: "Terrific! A dynamite collection packed with moral energy, but also very useful. Even more powerful, with even richer material, than the original edition. Buy hundreds of copies for your students, fellow teachers, and principals. Give some to your school board members. This is political pedagogy of the gutsy kind we almost never see these days." -- Jonathan Kozol "author of Savage Inequalities and The Shame of the Nation"

"Once again, Rethinking Schools brings us an example of the best social justice curriculum and pedagogy available today. In this second edition we experience the best of theory and practice, science and art, academic excellence and equity. It is a feast for both teachers and learners." -- Gloria Ladson-Billings "professor and Kellner Family Chair in Urban Education, University of Wisconsin-Madison, author of The Dreamkeepers: Successful Teachers of African American Children"

"A treasure trove of insights, creative activities, and valuable resources for the critical classroom, Rethinking Our Classrooms will help teachers wrestle with many of the issues we face in this new millennium from racism and gender identity to immigration phobia, global warming and the testing craze." -- Sonia Nieto "professor emerita, University of Massachusetts, Amherst"
