Climate Justice Now: Layering Texts About the Urgent Topic of Water Justice

This column supports the development of urgent pedagogies about climate justice learning in elementary and middle school ELA classrooms. In each issue, we will explore practical ways elementary teachers can engage young people to read, compose, learn about, and act on climate justice. The emphasis in this first issue, “Layering Texts About the Urgent Topic of Water Justice” will be on the importance of text selection, and layering a variety of multimodal and interdisciplinary texts to support meaningful and inquiry-oriented learning.
