About The Book
Teaching Global Literature from a Critical Literacy Perspective by Heather O'Leary offers a comprehensive guide for K-6 educators on how to integrate diverse global texts into their classrooms. Drawing from ethnographically informed classroom portraits and teachers' firsthand accounts, the book explores how educators can support student engagement with literature through critical literacy practices. This powerful approach encourages students to question, debate, and take action in response to global texts, fostering a deeper understanding of world issues.
The book demonstrates how teaching global literature not only aligns with the Common Core State Standards but also promotes a more inclusive, thoughtful approach to literature education. Through a multi-vocal lens, O'Leary addresses the challenges and debates surrounding literature instruction, especially in the context of global issues. This work serves as a valuable resource for teachers seeking to broaden their classroom practices while encouraging inquiry and critical thinking.
