reviewed Crossing Over: Teaching Meaning-Centered Secondary English Language Arts on October 01, 2008 Crossing Over: Teaching Meaning-Centered Secondary English Language Arts
Crossing Over: Teaching Meaning-Centered Secondary English Language Arts is a professional development text for English teachers. *Note: I may be a bit biased, since I have taken two classes from Dr. Foster at the University of Akron.
Dr. Foster divides this book up into the following aspects:
-A discussion on how creating meaning for students is of the utmost importance for teaching English
-Personal Narratives
-Reading Workshop
-Book discussion
-Drama
-Poetry
-Novels
-Writing
-New literacies, such as Film, Television, Etc.
-Assessments
-Several chapters on becoming and reflecting on being a teacher
With Foster's focus on getting students connected to a text should help any English teacher in the classroom. Even though this book has a 2002 copyright date, I found a lot of the strategies useful in the new world of Common Core standards. Overall, I would highly recommend this book.
