The Literate Life
"What is our vision of a literate life—for ourselves and for our students?" Stimulated by the release of Standards for the English Language Arts, the Elementary Section Steering Committee's conversations around this question culminated in a statement of standards related to a cycle of learning, offering a conceptual framework with which to understand the learning process. The book also features 15 classroom vignettes written by elementary teachers, offering real-life examples of teachers negotiating the sometimes difficult process of putting language arts standards into practice in the classroom. A valuable tool for those who wish to continue the conversation about standards, language arts curriculum, and literacy.
