Provenzo (School of Education, University of Miami) presents 100 classroom activities for teachers who want to move beyond traditional models of teaching and learning in social studies, literature, and the arts. The activities are designed to support students' deep and sustained learning, reflection, and critical thinking, and range across a number of disciplines. Students will draft new laws, lie on the floor on a taped grid to understand the experience of slavery's Middle Passage, visit Library of Congress web sites, and write obituaries of historical figures. Activities are intentionally presented in no particular order, to encourage multidisciplinary thinking among teachers; however, two matrices link each activity to specific McREL and National Council of Social Studies standards, to aid in selecting activities. Historical and contemporary b&w photos and drawings are included on every page. Co-author Dan Butin is assistant dean of Cambridge College's School of Education. Co-author Anthony Angelini is a social studies teacher in a public high school. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
