Sixth grade marks the transition to middle school and, for many students, the transition to early adolescence. The sixth-grade classroom is a place where problem-solving and abstract thinking skills can flourish as teachers devise creative ways to integrate language arts with effective content-area instruction. This book walks the reader through everyday life in a successful sixth-grade language arts/social studies classroom and provides foundational knowledge and hands-on strategies for working with diverse learners.
Children at the start of school ,but young adolescents by springtime, sixth graders are very much into 'becoming.' Their curiosity is heightened, their desire for activity and involvement is all too apparent. Guiding the learning of these diverse, in-motion kids is a demanding but fun-filled challenge, and this useful book is up to the task. The authors provide sound, imaginative, and effective techniques and strategies for helping youth build their abilities to appreciate and use language. This is a treasure chest of information that teachers will want to keep on hand./m-/John H. Lounsbury, EdD, Georgia College & State University
