By the Book: Using Literature to Discuss Disability with Children and Teens
Artman-Meeker, Kathleen; Grant, Thomas O.; Yang, Xueyan
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v48 n3 p151-158 Jan-Feb 2016
In our increasingly diverse schools, teachers have a responsibility and an opportunity to help students see themselves and others through the lens of literature. There are few resources available to help teachers make decisions about what literature to choose and how to use that literature in relation to disability in the classroom. This article presents a series of questions that teachers can ask themselves when evaluating literature, and provides sample discussion guides and activities for using books in early childhood, elementary, and secondary settings.
