Parts I and II are general to all K-12 classrooms. * Part three provides powerful specific subject-area examples of good practice, including English as a Second Language and Special/ Exceptional Education __Social Justice Pedagogy Across the Curriculum__ includes highlighted 'Points of Inquiry' and 'Points of Praxi's sections offering recommendations to teachers and researchers and activities, resources, and suggested readings.
