Description
Teaching Globally: Reading the World Through Literature helps educators develop curriculum that is intercultural, reflecting the increasingly globalised world. This book explains how to integrate global children's literature into existing literacy and social studies curricula, guiding students in exploring their own cultural identities and understanding those of others. By using a framework developed by Kathy Short, this resource supports teachers in integrating a global focus into classrooms, evaluating global resources, and creating activities with an intercultural perspective. The book features vignettes from K-8 schools, successes and struggles, as well as extensive lists of recommendations for further reading and resources. With its practical approach and support for district and state school mandates, Teaching Globally is a valuable resource for educators looking to enhance their teaching practices and promote cross-cultural understanding in the classroom.
