Igniting Social Action in the ELA Classroom Michael R. Bloomberg eminently believable protagonistThis practical book provides teachers with step by step guidance for developing a class culture that welcomes curiosity and ignites social action. Student driven inquiry has a lasting impact on learning, yet questions posed from students' own contexts rarely serve to shape their understanding of the outside world. The authors show teachers how to use literature to introduce characters and worlds that exist outside of their students' lived experiences.
