    A Cool Drink of Water
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2016*

This book changed my life.  Linda Christensen is a goddess, a wonderful pioneer of progressive teaching.  She shows you how teaching goes beyond standards and can get at the soul of your students.  This book is everything I aspire to be as an English teacher.  Everyday when I walk into my classromo, I hope to embody the spirit of this book and this wonderful woman. If you are a teacher that feels uninspired and burned out with lesson plans, bureaucracy, meetings, and grading, read this book to quench your parched spirit.  I promise it will not disappoint.

    A "must-have" for teachers who want to make a difference
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2010*

I bought this book as a required text for a graduate-level English Education course I am taking this semester, and quickly realized that this is a fantastic text about teaching writing from a social justice perspective.Linda Christensen, a veteran English/Language Arts teacher (or, as she puts it in the introduction, "a social justice educator in a language arts classroom"), enthusiastically shares her classroom-tested ideas for making writing instruction a central part of the curriculum by empowering students of all backgrounds and skill levels to write about their lives and experiences. She discusses ways to teach writing genres (poetry, narrative writing, and essays), ways to link writing instruction to literature, the relationship between language and power, and her philosophy regarding responding to and grading student work. Additionally, Christensen provides several examples of student work throughout the text to complement and illustrate her points. Even when addressing complex, theoretical concepts, the book remains easy to read and understand.The rich content found in this book is well worth its $20 price tag. Every English/Language Arts educator should not only own a copy--they should also immediately incorporate Christensen's philosophy into their own classrooms for the benefit of their students.

She has such a distinct point of view. The book feels like having a conversation with a veteran teacher. Her passion is evident; such a great read.
