What You Don't Know
AWARD-WINNING, HIGHLY ACCLAIMED AUTHOR: Higginbotham's previous book, Not My Idea: A Book About Whiteness , was a White Raven 2019 Selection and named one of School Library Journal 's Best Books of 2018. Higginbotham is also well-loved by schools and librarians alike, and has made numerous such stops on tour. CRITICAL CONTEMPORARY THEMES OF DIVERSITY: Higginbotham addresses LGBTQ+ identity, the process of coming out, the intersection between race and queerness, and other aspects of social justice in her iconic straightforward but sensitive style. AN UNDERREPRESENTED BOOK CATEGORY: While there is growing readership for books about LGTBQ+ families and the process of coming out, there are few, if any, books for children who are comfortable with their identity but are not yet ready to share it with the world. This book is for children who are not necessarily seeking acceptance so much as understanding.
Improve Every Lesson Plan with SEL
"Good lesson plans have an almost mysterious power; they declare that all information can be interesting, that every skill acquired broadens our potentials to make a better world, and that all impassioned activity leads to learning. Our best teachers have shown us over and over that life is not a struggle against boredom and compliance; it is a wonder to be apprehended. Every bit of SEL you can integrate into your planning will not only begin to heal the wounds of passivity, racism, and inequity, but also give students an experience today, in your classroom, of that better world."Jeffrey Benson draws from his 40-plus years of experience as a teacher and an administrator to provide explicit, step-by-step guidance on how to incorporate social and emotional learning (SEL) into K–12 lesson planning–without imposing a separate SEL curriculum.The book identifies SEL skills in three broad categories: skills for self, interpersonal skills, and skills as a community member. It offers research-based strategies for seamlessly integrating these skills into every section of lesson plans, from introducing a topic in a way that sparks students' interest, to accessing prior knowledge, providing direct instruction, allowing time for experimentation and discovery, using formative assessment, and closing a lesson in a purposeful rather than haphazard manner.In addition to practical advice on lesson planning that can lead to improved student motivation and achievement, Benson offers inspiration, urging both new and veteran teachers to seize every opportunity to develop caring, joyful communities of learners whose experiences and skills can contribute to a better, more equitable world both inside and outside the classroom.
Assessing with Respect
In this timely and thoughtful call to action, author and educator Starr Sackstein examines the critical intersection between assessment and social and emotional learning (SEL), particularly as it affects students of color and other marginalized groups. The book addresses the five SEL competencies identified by the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL)—self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making—and explains how teaching students to develop their abilities in these areas can help them improve their learning and assessment experiences.Sackstein also raises important considerations for educators, urging them to * Examine their implicit biases to improve their relationships with students.* Deepen their understanding of the impact of grades and assessments on students' self-image and their ability to reach their full potential as learners.* Develop personalized assessment systems that ensure an accurate, fair, and equitable portrayal of what students know and can do.In addition to presenting the relevant research, Sackstein draws from personal experience and the reflections of students, teachers, and administrators to present a compelling case for approaching assessment through the SEL lens. Educators at all levels who have witnessed the devasting effects that testing can have on students' beliefs in themselves as learners will find Assessing with Respect to be an invaluable guide to ensuring better outcomes—and better emotional health—for all students.
