Synopsis:
In the Sixth Edition, Carole Cox demonstrates how to work within a student-and response-centered approach to literature-based teaching in today's culturally and linguistically diverse classrooms. Renowned for its authoritative, comprehensive coverage of the contemporary language arts classroom, the sixth edition of Teaching Language Arts provides a balance of student-centered and teacher-directed instruction that includes many examples from today's classrooms. The sixth edition stays on the cutting edge with new snapshots of real teachers that bring the content to life for students, and fresh, thought-provoking lesson plans and teaching ideas.
