“The Kid’s Guide to Social Action” by Barbara A. Lewis
It would be impossible to say this was not an Element 6: Taking Social Action book! I was sold immediately: this book gives students ideas, opportunities, and help when it comes to social action within their community. This book is packed with information that really aids students in this element of social justice.
Using it in the classroom:
To use this book, I would most definitely introduce it when I see that my students are passionate about a social movement. This book will have them excited, informed, and ready to take social action. When students get an idea in their head and they are ALL excited and motivated to do something about it- that is when I would bring this book into the classroom. It is the perfect book to get students going with an idea and it will allow them to run with it while being informed and readily equipped with the knowledge of how to do so!Summary:
