Young Adult Nonfiction: Gateway to the Common Core collects both a pithy rationale and classroom tough practices that coalesce to advance nonfiction YAL in all classrooms, not just those of the English and literacy variety. This book is one that teachers will want to keep within an arm'e(tm)s reach, as it will help defend practice just as surely as it will inspire the use of young adult nonfiction to the benefit of students. The editorial team expertly assembled leading scholars and educators to craft this important addition to the field of young adult literature., Recent years have brought an increase in the availability of high-quality young adult literature and a corresponding increase in popularity of the genre among adolescent readers. The need to bridge students' out-of-school literacy with classroom life is imperative, and teachers in middle and upper grades have both knowledge of YA literature and the ability to integrate it into school learning spaces. Offering what may be a welcome surprise to educators, this book demonstrates that nonfiction YA literature can indeed facilitate the rigorous learning goals of the Common Core. Young Adult Nonfiction serves as a timely, practical set of resources for secondary-level teachers across content area disciplines. Each chapter clearly illustrates the ways YA nonfiction can help students achieve the standards for ELA/literacy, math, science, and technical subjects while providing a multitude of resources in the form of YA titles, web resources, and even unit and lesson plan ideas.... [A]ll teaching ideas are linked clearly to Common Core Standards. This book is a great option for an interdisciplinary, school-based, professional learning community. It is a useful resource for teachers looking to build connections between literacy and content areas. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, professionals., Young Adult Nonfiction: Gateway to the Common Core collects both a pithy rationale and classroom tough practices that coalesce to advance nonfiction YAL in all classrooms, not just those of the English and literacy variety. This book is one that teachers will want to keep within an arm's reach, as it will help defend practice just as surely as it will inspire the use of young adult nonfiction to the benefit of students. The editorial team expertly assembled leading scholars and educators to craft this important addition to the field of young adult literature., With this book, Young Adult Nonfiction, Hayn, Kaplan, Nolen, and Olvey have gathered together a collection of scholars whose advice and wisdom raise above the demands of the common core and provide teachers with a vision of how young adult nonfiction can be a useful key to seamlessly introduce informational text, cross-curricular knowledge, and text complexity into the language arts classroom. This book will remain an important guide for using nonfiction with students for many years after the hoopla of the common core has passed precisely because it focuses on the timeless issues of good pedagogical practices., A casual observer might dismiss this as an ordinary annotated bibliography, but it would be a mistake for librarians to bypass this guide to integrating nonfiction into middle- and high-school education. Part of the volume is bibliography, but the essays also suggest lessons and activities to accompany the highlighted works. This volume is meant to enhance teaching in language arts, social studies, and even science and mathematics. A chapter on collaboration between language arts and science teachers through nonfiction literature suggests numerous titles that integrate genetics, evolution, ecology, and epidemiology ... Another section suggests supplementing informational texts with historical fiction to enhance comprehension of history. Two particularly interesting components are a chapter on using graphic nonfiction to fortify STEM classes and another on using nonfiction to reinforce math vocabulary through stories. Following the articles is a bibliography of sources cited and additional works. More nonfiction selections sorted by discipline precede the detailed index. This is an essential addition to the professional collection in any middle or high school concerned with broadening student perspectives (or thorough implementation of the Common Core State Standards.)on selections sorted by discipline precede the detailed index.
