21st Century Reading: Creative Thinking and Reading with TED Talks

Blass, L.; Sheils, C.
This contemporary and engaging multicomponent kit, suitable for a broad age range (grades 5 through 12), would be a great companion to an English Language Arts program, and an English Language Learner class. Each unit in the resource tackles a current issue with local and global connections, and asks students to make connections to their personal lives and/or local community. The topics are wide-ranging, and the interdisciplinary nature of the units lends itself well as a supplemental resource across the curriculum. The language development activities and follow-up activities provide an opportunity for personalized research, group work, and presentation skills.
