ABSTRACT

REVIEWED BY NEAL A. LESTER All good teachers continually seek new and dierent ways to enhance their classroom instruction, ways to make their teaching more exciting to them and to make learning more exciting for their students. Assuming that teachers are clear about what to teach and about the what, who, where, when, and why dimensions of those texts, others’ suggestions of how to present texts and ideas within texts are almost always welcome. Particularly when texts deal with sophisticated, complicated, real-life issues such as race, class, gender, sexuality, and violence, for instance, veteran teachers might well turn to Eliza A. Comodromos’s Teacher’s Guide to the Bluford Series (2001).
