ReviewsKathy G. Short, Deanna Day and Jean Schroeder edit Teaching Globally: Reading the World Through Literature (9781571107923, $37.33) will reach teachers of grades K-8 with a discussion of how a global curriculum operates and why it's important for students to know not only geographical facts about other cultures, but their perspectives and social environment. The tips on how to incorporate such a curriculum in an existing structure comes from an author who has developed and applied her own framework, and shows teachers how to blend an expanded global focus into existing literacy and social studies programs. From concrete examples of approaches that helped open specific countries to students to tables and charts that offer data supporting case histories and examples, Teaching Globally offers a powerful key to fostering student understanding. The Bookwatch, Midwest Book Review Education Shelf November 2016, Teaching Globally: Reading the World Through Literature considers why global curriculum is important and shows how to include this curriculum within the wider framework of state teaching requirements; but it's not a general discussion. Author Kathy G. Short developed a framework for such an plan, and Teaching Globally provides the strategies and integration techniques educators need to make this goal happen. Chapters pair vignettes from K-8 urban and rural schools with discussions of how to encourage students as they examine cross-cultural issues. They provide activities that support this venture, offer in-depth and specific checklists of websites and professional books, and consider different perspectives on providing cross-cultural information in diverse classroom settings. Packed with ideas for engagement, Teaching Globally is a reading guide that covers the nuts and bolts of applied cross-cultural teaching and should be a basic acquisition to any educator's library.
