Layers of Learning: Using Every Book as an Invitation for Students to Learn about Themselves, Others, and the World
JoEllen McCarthy
Our libraries and bookshelves contain the most powerful tools for teaching, but it's not just about what books we use—it's about how we use them. When we connect academic and social and emotional needs, our conversations become richer, and learning becomes more meaningful. This session will focus on using picture books as co-teachers for lessons in reading, writing, and life. By using engaging and diverse books as a springboard, educators can foster kid-centered inclusive conversations about social justice issues, and inspire students to be agents of change.
In this engaging and interactive session, participants will:
- Consider discussion possibilities and powerful read alouds that can help nurture our communities with respect for our social, emotional, civic, and intellectual interactions
- Reflect on powerful picture books (through mentor texts and mentor authors) that celebrate culture, diversity, and honor the lived experiences of all children
- Explore ideas in texts, including connections to children's own lives, to the lives of characters in the stories, or the creators of those stories; recognizing the need to read with a critical lens, explore concepts around point of view, experiences, and biases that can shape perspectives
- Explore a framework for choosing and selecting texts that reflect more inclusive classroom libraries, spaces, and places; and demonstrate the ways we can use books as co-teachers for literacy and life lessons
- Discover an abundance of ideas--beyond book lists--to adopt or adapt immediately that can complement reading and writing workshops, existing units of study, or foster stand-alone lessons that strengthen caring, responsive, and inclusive whole school communities
