PLANNING TO CHANGE THE WORLD: A Plan Book for Social Justice Teachers

by the New York Collective of Radical Educators and the Education for Liberation Network

Back to school time: "PLANNING TO CHANGE THE WORLD: A Plan Book for Social Justice Teachers" is not just a blank lesson planner book. It's designed to help teachers translate their vision of a just education into concrete classroom activities."  The calendar includes historical dates of interest with references to relevant teaching resources related to historical dates such as online lesson plans, videos, and  books -- along with provocative discussion questions, inspirational quotes to share with students, tips from other social justice educators, and plenty of space to plan out your teaching. Think of it like the famous Slingshot planner but for teachers!  Spiral bound, 8.5x11", $18, proceeds benefit the New York Collective of Radical Educators and the Education for Liberation Network.
 
 

…an imaginative and innovative idea in the field of education. It is something that teachers all over the country who have social consciences will find useful because it will give them an opportunity and a framework for putting into practice what they believe. I hope it will be widely adopted.

 –Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States
