"Get Free shows middle- and secondary educators a framework for making important, intentional shifts in pedagogy to help students become more critical readers, writers, and thinkers - and ultimately more responsible, informed citizens. Get Free is organized around three themes-Self (understanding ourselves, digging into our identities), Others (appreciating diverse perspectives), and Together (synthesizing reading and writing in ways that help us get free!)-that overlay the literacy skill development that teachers are already doing. Chapters include strategies and practical suggestions around topics such as building a classroom culture built on trust and risk-taking; exploring students' identities through reflective writing and rich mentor texts; listening to and unpacking the perspective of others through meaningful conversation; critically reading literature; and constructing and analyzing arguments. These are not prescriptive units or lessons in isolation, but instead a map through the author's thinking process and rationale for teaching moves and student outcomes. Because there's no such thing as one-size-fits-all in any classroom, but especially not in an antiracist classroom, Ebarvia invites readers to think and adapt her ideas for their context and students"--Provided by publisher.

"In this new book from Routledge and MiddleWeb, author Angie Miller shows how you can turn your students into informed citizens by teaching them how to research effectively. In today's information-saturated world research skills have moved beyond fact-finding, into fact-sifting, fact-sorting, and fact-assessing. Miller shows you how to help students check sources, take good notes, make use of information, and synthesize and present information across the subject areas. She also shows how to make research a daily practice, not a one-time essay or project. With examples and handouts you can use immediately, this practical book is a valuable resource for educators seeking to engage students in their work and encourage them toward higher level thinking"--.
