Westphal, a former teacher and current independent gifted education and science consultant, demonstrates to third through fifth grade teachers how to improve student-centered inclusive classrooms by using five types of menus from which lower, on-level, and English language learners can choose products they will create (like books, diaries, letters, recipes, models, videos, speeches, and songs/raps), so teachers can assess their language arts learning. She describes the importance of choice and the benefits, drawbacks, and time aspects for tic-tac-toe, list, 2-5-8, three shape, and baseball menus; how to use them in inclusive classrooms; different types of products in these menus; guidelines and expectations for creation; and general and student presentation rubrics. Menus are for reading and writing, and detail objectives, materials, time frame, forms, and guidelines for assessment. The volume complements others in the series for on-level, advanced, and gifted students. No index is supplied. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
