Product Description
“Hladczuk’s bibliography on literacy, which is the most comprehensive literacy/illiteracy bibliography available, covers every literacy `issue’ currently in existence, including technological and mathematical literacy, aliteracy, and job literacy. Organized into 37 subject-oriented chapters, this bibliography provides approximately 3,000 citations. Most are dated from 1980 to the present. Although this work is a companion volume to Literacy/Illiteracy in the World. . . it can definitely stand alone. Author and subject indexes complete the volume. . . .

I’m trying to do a rock cycle lesson for a group of 7th graders who have some literacy and attention based disabilities. I’ve already put together a lesson that introduces students to the cyclical design of the rock cycle. I want to do one intro lesson for each type of rock, followed by a lesson with a more hands-on activity for each type of rock.
