Produktbeschreibung
We are witnessing large-scale human and environmental crises, yet many educators are unsure what and how to teach children about these topics. Elementary teachers, teacher educators and pre-service teachers will find answers in this book. Burroughs & Bellino's unique approach of combining the content and skills learned in elementary Science and Social Studies classrooms with an emphasis on EcoJustice, provides a path for developing informed, concerned, critical thinkers who are ready to take active engagement to address the socio-environmental challenges ahead. This book offers a practice-based vision of how this can be accomplished within K-5 classrooms. Teachers, parents and administrators worry that children are not ready to learn about the environmental and social crises we are facing globally and locally, yet the children are already living the consequences and will be called to take action to sustain the planet during their lifetime. The authors believe that it is an obligation to prepare this generation, but they are well aware of the uphill battle teachers face. Teachers today need to be first and foremost inspired and supported in this work. Next, they need practical examples and tools to guide them. This book answers that call.
