Description
Burroughs and Bellino provide a practice-based vision to guide teachers in developing informed, concerned, critical thinkers ready to engage in addressing socio-environmental challenges. They combine the content and skills learned in elementary social studies and science classrooms with an emphasis on EcoJustice as a model for K-5 classrooms. The authors believe educators must prepare young people for the world they are inheriting. Teachers will find valuable knowledge, support, examples, and tools in this book to guide them.
