SUPPORTING STUDENTS IN A TIME OF CORE STANDARDS

Award-winning middle school and high school teachers demonstrate how they integrate the Common Core State Standards with their individual teaching approaches, and also provide further guidelines for effective student-centered teaching. Addressing key features of the CCSS and drawing from varied and unexpected texts like Macbeth, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, speeches by Barack Obama, graphic novels, and Star Wars, this book offers snapshots from individual classrooms as teachers give advice on what works best for their students and reflect on their successes and challenges.
