Turning the Page

A Guide to Securing Multicultural Literature for Schools

About this book

The workbook and journal industry is exploding as people find a multitude of ways to supplement their academic engagement while learning online. Designed to be a companion text to Turning the Page: The Ultimate Guide for Teachers to Multicultural Literature, this book offers a nonjudgmental space where educators can take an introspective dive into their feelings about multiculturalism in the effort to generate a list of multicultural books appropriate for schools. In an educator's journey toward building a multicultural library including books that celebrate individuality, finding quality, bias-free, multicultural literature is paramount. In Turning the Page: A Guide to Securing Multicultural Literature for Schools, readers can practice concepts found in the first Turning the Page book. With charts and tables that illustrate the history of multicultural literature and the positive impact it has on society, this workbook is part history textbook and part journal. Also included are spaces where readers can write down ideas from the book that inspire them while completing worksheets and self-surveys that examine the core of their belief system. Organized in short paragraphs, the information is easily digestible to keep readers engaged with the work of building a multicultural library where students can see themselves.
