Breaking Boundaries with Global Literature

In today's increasingly diverse classrooms, it is essential for educators to provide students with the tools, dialogue, and experiences that will help them to know and understand the global village in which they live and also build their compassion, empathy, and appreciation for the diverse individuals and cultures who populate it. This unique and innovative resource shows educators how to accomplish both of these goals.

Drawing from the selection of quality global literature chosen for the Notable Books for a Global Society booklists, this book explores key themes in global literature, offering ideas, activities, and strategies for your K-12 English language arts classrooms. You will learn how to use global literature to

-Explore literary elements and at the same time develop students global awareness
-Illustrate the diversity as well as the commonality at the heart of all stories and people
-Promote students critical thinking about society, diversity, and their place in the global community
-Extend students' connections with literature to constructive activism and service learning
