Overview
In the fourth edition of this classic, Larry Swartz digs into the riches of the past three editions and considers the experiences of language arts teachers who have used all versions of the book for almost three decades. Simple, engaging strategies for exploring literacy in new and innovative ways show how to weave picture books, novels, poetry, scripts, photographs, and other interactive strategies into effective literacy instruction. Full of engaging new ideas, the book includes many new sources and carefully chosen strategies for exploring issues such as identity, poverty, diversity, bullying, and immigration.
