Melisa Cahnmann-Taylor and Mariana Souto-Manning are pleased to
announce the release of their book Teachers Act Up: Creating
Multilingual Learning Communities through Theatre, published by
Teachers College Press (http://store.tcpress.com/0807750735.shtml).



Teachers Act Up is based on a six-year project with bi- and
multilingual educators to critically and theatrically explore
difficult conversations around aspects of race, language, class, and
curriculum they are likely to have with colleagues, students,
administrators, and parents. The authors have practiced the theatrical
strategies presented here with pre- and in-service teachers in
numerous contexts, including college courses, professional development
seminars, and PreK-12 classrooms.



The book includes step-by-step instructions and vivid photographs to
help readers use these revoluationary

theatre strategies in their own contexts for a truly unique learning experience.

Going to AERA? We'll have a panel presentation Sat. May 1 at 10am and
a book signing at the Teacher College Press Booth #411 also on
Saturday at 1:30pm
