Although I tagged this book as one that boy's will enjoy, it is really for the teacher looking for an understanding of what draws boys to reading. Thomas Newkirk's misreading masculinity is a great resource that explores how boys see the world. It offers insight into opening up literacy learning to include graphic novels, popular culture, television, and even video games. Boys typically see reading as a feminine activity. They also would much rather spend their time in other activities such as sports. Understanding what types of literature will attract boys is a necessary element to getting them to read. This is a must read for teachers of language arts. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Tom Newkirk takes an up-close look at elementary boys and their relationship to sports, movies, video games, and other venues of popular culture. He sees these media not as enemies of literacy, but as resources for literacy. Through a series of interviews, Newkirk listens to young boys, and girls, who describe the pleasure they take in popular culture and explain the ways in which they use visual narratives in their writing. Combining memoir, research project, cultural analysis, and critique of published findings, Newkirk encourages schools to ask questions about what counts as literacy in boys. He makes the case that if we want boys to join "the literacy club, " then we have to invite them in with genres of their own choosing. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
