Here, the authors present 18 ideas (one for every two weeks of the typical school year) to extend teaching beyond required standards to be met in grades K-12. From their comprehensive experiences in public and private schools, the authors present working options for carrying out these Ideas either directly or as a merged part of a curriculum that concentrates on meeting standards. Written in an informal, conversational style, this book provides a practical approach with specific examples for new and experienced teachers. All ideas, options, and questions are: pertinent to a number of different grades and subject areas and can be used with most students, best implemented through the creative thinking and reflective action of the teacher. Teaching Beyond the Standards is a unique offering that meets the needs of teachers who wish to teach standards, but not be limited by them, as they work to bring about the intellectual, emotional, and social growth of their students. For pre-service undergraduates, graduate students in teacher education, and practicing teachers.
Bill Martin is a professor of education at George Mason University. Arvinder K. Johri is a middle school English teacher with the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C.
