IN PRAISE OF OUR TEACHERS(ISBN=9780807031483) 英文原版 下载 fb2 pdf rb kindle 115盘 极速 azw3

　　A joyous collection of tributes-both original and previously

published-that celebrate the gifts of remarkable teachers.

Teachers have always made an indelible impression on their

charges. Now, in this new book, Gloria Wade-Gayles has brought

together a winning and touching collection of pieces about teachers

and teaching, with inspiring and dramatic anecdotes woven in. Each

story offers a new and unique perspective on some of our country's

most beloved teachers.

With pieces by legendary writers like Langston Hughes and Alice

Walker, we see how a strong teacher can turn a nervous child into a

world renowned artist. Robin D. G. Kelley frames a short history of

busing with a sweet story about having a crush on his third grade

teacher. Marian Wright Edelman celebrates Howard Zinn's teaching

style, his insistence on exploration and questioning; and Zinn

himself provides an opinion on the profession he has practiced for

most of his life.

But we also hear from a diverse group of students: writers who

were part of the first wave of integration in their school system

and immigrants who learned to speak English and participate in

American culture in their schools.

We get stories from Catholic schools, pubic schools, college

classrooms, and more. In this age of standardized testing, In

Praise of Our Teachers is a wonderful reminder of the immeasurable

influence that teachers will always have on their students.
