Through this book, Pennell has broken this logjam. She has taken critical pedagogy, critical literacy, and critical math and put them into practice?with dramatically positive results. Queer pedagogy enabled unlocking all these other approaches and allowed students to make math speak for social justice?a miraculous accomplishment!? ?George W. Noblit, Joseph R. Neikirk Distinguished Professor of Sociology of Education at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA ?Pennell extends a powerful metaphor in which kayaking represents nuanced social justice work among mostly white and gay-friendly middle schoolers in a literacy and math elective course. In doing so, she challenges teachers and students to draw on their identities as allies, with respect to sexual diversity, in order to develop their identities as allies with respect to racial diversity. In this way, Pennell guides readers to queer curriculum for social justice.? ?Mollie V. Blackburn, Professor of Teaching and Learning at Ohio State University, USA This volume explores the value of using queer pedagogy in an interdisciplinary middle school classroom to promote a better understanding of social justice and the social construction of knowledge among students. In the course of the study, which combined student-centered literacy and mathematical inquiries through a social justice lens, students used critical literacy skills to research social justice topics, learned to read numerical data like traditional print text, and created and solved their own math problems. In bringing together critical mathematics and critical literacy through a queer lens, the author offers new ways of thinking that challenges norms and helps students embrace new concepts of learning for the modern era. 410 0$aQueer Studies and Education 606 $aEducation$xCurricula 606 $aLiteracy 606 $aCritical Thinking 606 $aAlternative Education 606 $aLearning, Psychology of 606 $aCurriculum Studies 606 $aLiteracy 606 $aCritical Thinking 606 $aAlternative Education 606 $aInstructional Psychology 615 0$aEducation$xCurricula. 615 0$aLiteracy. 615 0$aCritical Thinking. 615 0$aAlternative Education. 615 0$aLearning, Psychology of. 615 14$aCurriculum Studies. 615 24$aLiteracy. 615 24$aCritical Thinking. 615 24$aAlternative Education. 615 24$aInstructional Psychology. 676 $a306.7601 676 $a370.115 700 $aPennell$b Summer Melody$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059476 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337753603321 996 $aQueering Critical Literacy and Numeracy for Social Justice$92505968 997 $aUNINA
