It introduces a diverse range of classroom discussion techniques, drawing inspiration from contemplative traditions such as Jewish and Christian faiths, including florilegium, lectio divina, PaRDeS, Ignatian Imagination, havruta, and marginalia. Through real-world classroom experiences, the authors elucidate each approach, applying it to twelve popular and critically acclaimed young adult novels, including The Hate U Give, Long Way Down, Speak, The Poet X, The Fault in Our Stars, Brown Girl Dreaming, and more. This book will revolutionize discussions that feel disconnected from the book, lacking in relevance, or lacking the energy that drives engaging conversations. It will transform them into meaningful and dynamic class discussions that students and teachers will cherish equally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 292g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 228 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781475862102\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Boerman-Cornell,Deborah Vriend Van Duinen,Kristine Alatheia Mensonides Gritter,Xu Bian","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":47482039009530,"sku":"9781475862102","price":28.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1751637091426_book.jpg?v=1751754995","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/young-adult-literature-and-spirituality-how-to-unlock-deeper-understanding-with-class-discussion-9781475862102","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
