Reading the Rainbow: LGBTQ-Inclusive Literacy in the Elementary Classroom
GLSEN
Former elementary school teachers Caitlin L. Ryan & Jill M. Hermann-Wilmarth, (with a foreword by Mariana Souto-Manning), deliver a warm and vigorous invitation for teachers to create equitable classrooms --that not only educate-- but honor the full humanity of all students. A deep exploration of every educator’s commitment to justice in teaching, this book offers comprehensive resources, curriculum development, resource materials, and a pathway between existing literature and current LGBTQ resources.
