The New Left And The Human Service Professions, Robert J. S. Ross May 1977

The New Left And The Human Service Professions, Robert J. S. Ross

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

The movement also gave expression to guilt, for some, over their "privileged" backgrounds. The New Left's decentralist views about power produced an orientation to local insurgency: the organization of neighborhood and community activist organizations. In combination, for those influenced by the movement and entering the professions, a characteristic type of new professionalism arose: advocacy for the interests and organizations of the oppressed. Illustrations of this process are found in …

Children's Literature And The Classroom Teacher, Lucetta A. Johnson Apr 1977

Children's Literature And The Classroom Teacher, Lucetta A. Johnson

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The elementary teacher may well ask why teach children's literature when each day's schedule is already crowded with mathematics, reading, spelling, English, science, social studies, physical education, art, music, values, career awareness, and all subjects that come under these broad headings. This article will suggest some ways that children's literature can be used in the elementary curriculum to achieve reading goals that improve on traditional reading programs. Children's literature in no way replaces these programs, rather, it extends and enriches the reading curriculum while encouraging positive reading attitudes.
