In a time when teachers are often blamed for adopting culturally sustaining teaching practices and pressured to whitewash the curriculum, creating an environment where students and teachers can engage in meaningful conversations about complex and uncomfortable topics becomes challenging. Chapters in this book, contributed by scholars and K–12 teachers who have used young adult literature to engage their students, address this issue and focus on themes such as multilingualism, culturally responsive teaching, dis\/ability, racism, linguicism, and gender identity. By employing socioemotional learning, trauma-informed practices, and historical and racial literacy, the text explores how books with complicated themes can positively resonate with students' own lives and perspectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIdeal for courses on English Language Arts and literature instruction, this book provides a fresh set of perspectives and methods for approaching and engaging with difficult topics. Given that young adult literature that addresses challenging subjects is more likely to be considered controversial to teach, teachers will greatly benefit from the additional guidance provided in this volume, enabling them to effectively reach the very students these themes address.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 400g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032283029\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44105058484474,"sku":"9781032283029","price":39.03,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1675435309106_book.jpg?v=1676193015","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/teaching-challenged-and-challenging-topics-in-diverse-and-inclusive-literature-addressing-the-taboo-in-the-english-classroom-9781032283029","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
