Simply written, a short easy read in two afternoons at the park with kids. Chapter 10 is a gem, about being willing to take risks and be a leader in developing new strategies to engage students, despite pushback from all corners. I disagree with the authors that relevance means discharging classics (see chapter 12). Dig deeper! What made them classics? What values do these old books convey that are needed today? It is arrogant to assume that there is nothing of value in the old stories. What do they tell of the human condition? Human nature? Do they illuminate a period of time when assumptions about the natural world were different than we now believe? Dig deep! You are teachers--expand and become archeologists and anthropologists and philosophers and scientists--and use both fiction and nonfiction to expand your students' understanding of history, of others, and themselves. ( ) 4.5 stars. “But an educated citizenry, a populace who expects and demands clear and honest discourse, may be able to reject those who would use language to mislead, inflame, or enslave.” This professional development book is well-researched and provides lots of real classroom dialogues as the basis for its arguments. There is an underlying message that we are failing students by forcing them to read for details and monologic facts instead of opening up the conversations surrounding reading to our students. This is a pretty great book— not 5 stars because there are some repeated ideas from other current professional development books. This is a must read for anyone who teaches reading or language arts, or anyone who assigns reading passages for homework, or ... well in short for anyone who reads! The idea of disrupting our own thinking in order to bring about change and teaching "responsible" reading are just what we need in light of our current political and social climate. We need to teach these skills now more than ever. Have a pencil handy so you can jot down notes and be prepared for the urge to read passages aloud to anyone that will listen! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"Kylene Beers and Bob Probst showed teachers how to help students become close readers. Now, in Disrupting thinking they take teachers a step further and discuss an on-going problem: lack of engagement with reading. They explain that all too often, no matter the strategy shared with students, too many students remain disengaged and reluctant readers. The problem, they suggest, is that we have misrepresented to students why we read and how we ought to approach any text, fiction or nonfiction"--Publisher's website.
