Today's and tomorrow's classrooms will be increasingly organized around BIG IDEAS which enable students to look at the issues in their world from a variety of different perspectives. The BIG IDEAS become the springboards for new deep learning around interests that the students themselves are captivated by rather than knowledge, skills and affect chosen by some curriculum written by professionals far removed from any classroom. Often times, great literature for children can be the springboard to exploration by students of the world around them in a meaningful way. In this podcast I explore this idea and give some examples of just how this might happen.
