Literacy through Language Arts: Teaching and Learning in Context
Editor(s): Sharon Murphy, Curt Dudley-Marling
Literacy through Language Arts gathers 25 provocative essays and 80 shorter excerpts from the past 25 years of the leading K–8 journal Language Arts. This collection puts the power of theory and historical context side by side with lived classroom experience to explore promising pedagogical strategies and practices. The book offers new and experienced teachers and teacher educators a powerful resource as they discuss and decide how to teach reading, writing, and oral literacy--and how to address key issues including multilinguality and assessment. Contributing researchers/practitioners include such influential thinkers as Penny Freppon, Karin Dahl, Dorothy Strickland, Louise Rosenblatt, Frank Smith, and Anne Haas Dyson.
