A longtime friend sent me a reaction to some blog postings. He asked that I share it. It is copied below:
Empowering Youth is exactly the practical kind of book we are looking for involving our 9-12 students in activities that can be integrated across the curriculum. "Worksheets don't grow dendrites." These writers know how brains work. Active learners remember what they do. A veteran of 25 years of interactive teaching and learning in American literature and American history using the media, I highly recommend this text. These well planned activities lead to positive learning experiences in a positive school climate and positive messages for daily living. I am purchasing copies for all three high schools for immediate adoption consideration.
