Recenzijas
"Blackburn and Miles provide a number of easily implemented ideas that can be used in the ELA and Social Studies Classroom to increase rigor. All through the book are examples, strategies, anecdotes, ideas, and research that will assist readers as they work to increase rigor in their daily teaching repertoire. ... I definitely recommend this book for ELA teachers, Social Studies teachers, and administrators. Dont be afraid to ask a colleague to read the book along with you or give you input into your lessons or curriculum. Dont let the buzzword Rigor scare you! Once you begin reading the book, you wont want to put it down (except to jot ideas to use in your teaching)."--Linda Biondi, MiddleWeb Review, https://www.middleweb.com/44874/redefining-rigor-for-ela-and-social-studies/
