Description: Civic Literacy Through Curriculum Drama, Grades 6-12, Hardcover by Franklin, Catherine A., ISBN 1412939283, ISBN-13 9781412939287, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Franklin (education, City College, CUNY) offers middle and secondary school teachers who teach social studies or want to situate social studies as a core topic within the extended literacy program, a practical text for engaging students, also suitable for use at the university level. The text centers around an innovative approach through which the teacher and the students construct the "curriculum drama." Students do not interact with each other in their conventional classroom roles, but instead take on constructed roles within a defined community of practice, such as studying the legislative process by working as senators in their classroom senate, analyzing the crimes of a literary character in a novel by transforming the class into a courtroom. The text includes an overview of the curriculum drama approach followed by specific detailed examples of its application to various social studies topics, including legislation and politics, current events, history, and law.
