Summary |
"Hands Down, Speak Out is an innovative book that looks at how we can teach students how to talk and listen to one another, without all discourse running through the teacher. Kassia is a math coach and Christy is a literacy coach. Together, they show how to teach dialogue "micro-lessons" alongside content, both within and across math and literacy, so students become increasingly skilled and independent in conversations. Their hope is that students will have better, deeper discourse within the content areas, and also beyond the classroom"-- Provided by publisher |
