Description
Teaching Language Arts continues its emphasis on a student-and response-centered approach to literature-based teaching in today's culturally and linguistically diverse classrooms.
Carole Cox uses a strong theoretical base that covers content in a wide and in-depth manner. This provides a balance of student-centered and teacher-directed instruction that includes many examples from today's classrooms. Teaching Language Arts continues to be an eloquent and well-researched text that students and teachers will find empowering.
